About Teague EL
Teague Elementary serves 487 students in pre-K through fourth grade in Teague, Texas, earning a composite score of 9.1 out of 10. The school ranks #127 out of 8,547 public schools in Texas, outperforming 98% of its peers statewide. That standing reflects steady performance across the metrics that matter most: academic achievement and year-over-year student growth.
The academic score of 9.2 is strong, but the growth score of 9.9 is what separates Teague Elementary from the field. Growth measures how much students advance relative to comparable peers — a 9.9 signals that kids here gain more ground than at nearly any other school in Texas. Among the state's 4,678 elementary schools, Teague ranks #85, placing it in the top 2% of its peer group.
That combination of high baseline academics and exceptional growth means students aren't just performing well — they're accelerating. A student-teacher ratio of 14.8 to 1 keeps classrooms manageable and supports the kind of individualized attention that drives those outcomes. For families in Teague weighing their elementary options, the data points in one direction: this is a school delivering results well above what its size and setting might suggest.
