Summary:
Zip code 79502 in Aspermont, Texas, is home to a single elementary school, Aspermont Elementary, which serves grades PK through 5 with a total enrollment of just 86 students, representing a very small, rural school environment.
Aspermont Elementary is part of the Aspermont Independent School District (Isd), which is a high-performing district ranking 52nd out of 951 districts in Texas (95th percentile) with a 5-star rating. The school itself has a 3-star rating and ranks 1,905th out of 4,651 elementary schools in the state (59th percentile). A notable strength is in Mathematics, where 3rd and 4th graders outperformed the state average in 2024-2025 (57.14% proficient vs. ~45% state average). However, Reading proficiency lags behind the state average across all tested grades (3rd: 50%, 4th: 42.86%, 5th: 50%). The school also has a very favorable student-teacher ratio of 11.1 and spends $12,328 per student, which are typically indicators of a resource-rich environment.
Key takeaways for parents include a clear academic strength in Math and Science (5th grade Science at 31.25% exceeds the state average of 29.57%), but a consistent weakness in Reading that may require targeted support. The school's state ranking has been relatively stable but slightly declining over the past three years, from the 64th percentile in 2022-2023 to the 59th percentile in 2024-2025. With 60.47% of students receiving free or reduced lunch, the school serves a community with moderate economic need. The small class sizes and strong district reputation make Aspermont Elementary a solid choice for families seeking individualized attention, though parents should be aware of the reading performance gap.
