Fayetteville Isd, TX - District Data

Original Research by School Decision on Fayetteville Isd

Fayetteville ISD is a small district in Fayette County, Texas, serving students from pre-kindergarten through high school. The enrollment is roughly three hundred students, distributed across a single school that spans all grades. The student body is predominantly White, with smaller shares of Hispanic and other racial backgrounds. About a fifth of the students are Hispanic. Specific data on free and reduced-price lunch eligibility and English learner status are not available in the current district profile.

The district's academic performance shows strength in language arts and mixed results elsewhere. In English language arts across tested grades, proficiency on state assessments sits above typical thresholds, with some grades reaching high marks. Grade four, for instance, shows strong proficiency. Fourth and fifth grade ELA results stand out as notably solid. Mathematics proficiency varies by grade. Sixth grade shows strong performance, while seventh grade dips lower. The elementary grades generally show proficiency in the mid-range. Overall, across math and ELA combined, the district's proficiency index places it above the midpoint among the four districts in Fayette County.

Science and social studies present softer spots. Science proficiency at the fifth and eighth grades is modest, with only about half of eighth graders meeting proficiency in science. Social studies proficiency at eighth grade is particularly low, with fewer than a third of students showing proficiency. These results suggest a parent may want to look into further with the school how science and social studies instruction is structured and where additional support might help.

State testing does not cover all grades, so there is no proficiency data for grades below third or for high school. The district's chronic absenteeism rate is above the county median, meaning a larger share of students are chronically absent compared to other districts in the county. Per-pupil current spending is below the median for the county.

The Fayetteville area sits in a region where housing values have risen modestly. The median home value in the district's service area has appreciated, and mortgage affordability reflects national trends. Median household income in the surrounding county is solid, and unemployment remains stable. The district itself has not announced major recent changes in strategic direction or operations that are publicly documented. For families considering this district, the takeaway is a small, tight-knit setting with capable performance in reading and writing, uneven results in math, and notably lower outcomes in science and social studies. The district's size and rural character mean a different experience than larger, more diverse districts, and the academic profile suggests a fit for families who prioritize strong language arts preparation but will want to understand how the school supports learning in other subject areas.
