Best Public Schools in Gorman, TX


Summary:

The city of Gorman, Texas is home to three schools serving students from elementary through high school: Maxfield Elementary, Gorman High School, and Gorman Middle. These schools are part of the Gorman Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 642 out of 968 districts in Texas and rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, suggesting the district as a whole may be underperforming compared to others in the state.

Among the standout schools, Gorman High School stands out with a high 4-year graduation rate of 96.8% and a very low dropout rate of 0.0%. The school also performs strongly on STAAR EOC exams, particularly in U.S. History with 95.45% of students proficient or better. In contrast, Maxfield Elementary has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, from 790 out of 4,581 Texas elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 1,851 out of 4,647 in 2022-2023, indicating a need for improvement in the school's academic performance.

Across the district, the high free/reduced lunch rates, ranging from 68.18% at Gorman Middle to 77.14% at Maxfield Elementary, suggest a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, which may present unique challenges and require targeted support. However, the relatively low student-teacher ratios, from 7.6 at Maxfield Elementary to 9.7 at Gorman Middle, could be a positive factor in providing individualized attention to students.
