Summary:
The Plainview Independent School District (Isd) in Texas is home to three elementary schools: North Elementary, Central Elementary, and South Elementary. These schools serve a diverse student population, with a majority Hispanic enrollment and high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Among the three schools, Central Elementary stands out as the top performer, with the highest overall test scores in both reading and math for 3rd and 4th grades. In the 2022-2023 school year, Central Elementary had the highest 3rd-grade reading proficiency at 45%, compared to 28% at North Elementary and 35% at South Elementary. Additionally, Central Elementary had the highest 4th-grade math proficiency at 35.51% in 2023-2024, outperforming the other two schools.
While the schools within the Plainview Independent School District (Isd) consistently perform below the state average in both reading and math proficiency, the smaller class size at South Elementary, with a student-teacher ratio of 13.4, may contribute to its relatively higher performance in some areas, such as 3rd-grade reading proficiency. However, the high poverty levels across all three schools, with over 80% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggest that the district faces significant challenges in supporting the academic success of its students.
