Rivercrest Isd, TX - District Data

Original Research by School Decision on Rivercrest Isd

Rivercrest ISD is a small rural district serving pre-kindergarten through grade twelve across Red River County in northeast Texas. The district enrolls a modest population drawn largely from the county's towns, with a student body that is predominantly white, followed by a substantial Hispanic population and smaller Black and multiracial groups.

The district's academic profile shows consistent but uneven performance across subjects. In mathematics, early elementary proficiency is low, rising from around the lower range in grade three to stronger ground by grade six before dipping slightly in the upper middle grades. English language arts tracks similarly, starting in the lower range in grades three and four and climbing to the mid-range by grade six. Science proficiency sits in the mid-range for the grades tested. Social studies presents a significant soft spot, with proficiency in grade eight at the lower end. The district's overall proficiency index places it above the midpoint within Red River County's three districts, though absolute proficiency rates across subjects remain modest. Parents may want to look into how the district is addressing early literacy and math foundations, where the data suggests many students are not yet meeting grade-level standards.

Chronic absenteeism runs higher than the county median, a metric that often correlates with academic progress. The district spends per pupil in the lower range compared to other county districts, which may reflect the area's rural character and smaller enrollment base.

Rivercrest's housing market is affordable relative to national benchmarks. Median home values in the area are low to moderate, with modest year-over-year appreciation. Rental housing is limited in the immediate district area; the most complete rental data comes from Mount Pleasant, a larger town on the district's edge. The affordability picture favors families seeking low housing costs, though wages in the county are also modest. The district maintains three school buildings: an elementary school, a junior high, and a high school, serving a distributed rural population.

Recent district governance included a property tax rate reduction despite rising valuations, holding the nominal rate steady in real terms. No state testing data was available for high school outcomes, and graduation rates were not reported in the data provided, so these represent gaps in the available picture. The district's course and program offerings were not detailed in the available materials.
