Best Public Schools in Smithville, TX


Summary:

The city of Smithville, Texas is home to 4 schools serving students from elementary through high school, operated by the Smithville Independent School District (ISD). While the district has some standout schools, such as Smithville Elementary and Smithville High School, the overall academic performance of the district appears to be underperforming compared to state averages.

Smithville Elementary stands out as the top-performing school in the district, ranking 2014 out of 4675 Texas elementary schools and earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperformed the state average in 3rd grade STAAR Reading and Mathematics, and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 16.1. Smithville High School also performed well, achieving an 89.5% 4-year graduation rate and outperforming the state average in STAAR EOC U.S. History.

However, the district as a whole faces challenges, with most schools ranked in the bottom half of their respective categories. The high free/reduced lunch rates, especially at Brown Pri and Smithville J H, suggest that the district serves a relatively economically disadvantaged population, which may contribute to the lower academic performance. The stark differences in test scores between the elementary, middle, and high school levels within the district indicate a potential need for a more cohesive and effective curriculum and instructional strategies across grade levels.
