Summary:
The Kerrville Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to 4 elementary schools that serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. These schools provide educational opportunities for families in the Kerrville area, with varying levels of academic performance and student demographics.
Among the standout schools in the district, Fred H Tally Elementary consistently outperforms the Kerrville ISD and Texas state averages on STAAR tests, particularly in Reading and Mathematics. This school is ranked 678 out of 4,675 Texas elementary schools and has maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past 3 years. In contrast, Starkey Elementary has seen a decline in its performance, dropping from a 4-star to a 2-star rating and falling below district and state averages in most STAAR test subjects.
The data also suggests a potential correlation between socioeconomic status and academic achievement, with the schools having the highest percentages of free/reduced lunch recipients, such as Nimitz Elementary and Starkey Elementary, generally performing worse on STAAR tests compared to schools with lower free/reduced lunch rates, like Daniels Elementary and Fred H Tally Elementary. Additionally, the schools in the Kerrville ISD have varying racial compositions, which may also contribute to differences in academic outcomes.
