Summary:
The city of Gun Barrel City, Texas is home to a single elementary school, Lakeview Elementary, which serves students from pre-kindergarten to 4th grade. Lakeview Elementary is part of the Mabank Independent School District (ISD) and has maintained a consistent 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past three school years, indicating strong academic performance.
Lakeview Elementary has a diverse student population, with a majority of White students (66.82%) and significant representation from Hispanic (26.45%), Asian (1.62%), Native American (0.7%), and students of two or more races (3.94%). The school's academic performance is generally above the district and state averages, particularly in reading, with 3rd and 4th-grade reading proficiency rates of 54.79% and 55.17%, respectively. However, the 4th-grade math proficiency rate of 45.98% is slightly lower than the district average, indicating a potential area for improvement.
Despite the school's strong academic performance, Lakeview Elementary faces economic challenges, with a high percentage of students (74.25%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests that the school serves a population with significant economic disadvantages, which may impact the school's resources and support needs. However, the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.4 suggests smaller class sizes and potentially more individualized attention for students, which could help address these challenges.
