Summary:
The city of Rhome, Texas is home to 3 schools, including 2 elementary schools and 1 middle school, all part of the Northwest Independent School District (Isd). While Chisholm Trail Middle stands out as the highest-performing school with strong test scores, the two elementary schools, Seven Hills Elementary and Prairie View Elementary, show more mixed results.
Chisholm Trail Middle excels in STAAR Algebra I and 8th grade Reading, significantly outperforming the district and state averages. In contrast, the elementary schools tend to lag behind in most STAAR subjects, particularly in Mathematics and Science. Seven Hills Elementary stands out with relatively strong performance in 5th grade Reading and 4th grade Mathematics, while Prairie View Elementary struggles, with very low proficiency rates in STAAR Spanish assessments.
The schools also differ in their student demographics, with Chisholm Trail Middle being the most diverse, and the elementary schools having higher percentages of White and Hispanic students. Interestingly, the higher spending per student and smaller class sizes at Chisholm Trail Middle do not necessarily translate to better academic performance across all schools, suggesting that other factors, such as teaching quality and school leadership, may play a significant role in student success.
