Mumford El, Mumford TX - Test Scores & Data

Original Research by School Decision on Mumford El

Mumford Elementary serves a very small rural school community in southeastern Robertson County, part of the Bryan-College Station metropolitan area. The school itself is part of Mumford ISD, which recently completed a significant facilities expansion including a new gymnasium and cafeteria with kitchen and athletic upgrades, funded from saved reserves without a property tax increase. The district has grown in recent years and the expansion reflects that enrollment growth while keeping the tax burden stable for families.

Academically, the school shows mixed but generally solid results on Texas state testing. In English language arts, performance is quite strong across all tested grades: third through sixth grade students show high proficiency, with particularly strong results in the upper grades. Math performance is more varied by grade level. Third graders show strong math proficiency, while fourth graders have a noticeably softer result, fifth graders rebound to moderate proficiency, and sixth graders reach strong performance again. Science, tested only in fifth grade, showed lower proficiency than math or reading. When looking at the full breadth of standards including both approaches (the entry level) and masters (the advanced level), nearly all students are meeting at least the foundational bar in English and math, though the share reaching the highest mastery level is smaller, particularly in math, science, and social studies.

The school's proficiency index across all tested subjects and grades is in the top quartile among Robertson County districts, reflecting strengths particularly in reading and foundational math.

The student population reflects the rural character of the community. About seven in ten students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating substantial economic need. The enrollment is racially mixed, with roughly equal shares of Hispanic and white students, plus a smaller Black student population. The school's special populations data, such as counts of English learners and students with individualized education plans, was not available in the data provided.

Mumford Elementary serves early grades pre-kindergarten through sixth, with enrollment distributed across all grade levels. The total enrollment is small, typical for an elementary school in a rural area. A parent considering this school should be aware of the reading strength and the recent facilities upgrades, while also noting that math proficiency varies somewhat by grade and science results at the fifth-grade level are lower than the school's English and math. The school's position within its small district and county suggests it is benefiting from recent improvement trajectories and facility investment in the district overall. A parent may want to follow up directly with the school about math support at fourth-grade level and science instruction approaches for students approaching fifth grade testing.

Graduation rate (ACGR) reflects the federally published Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate for the most recent year available. We refresh this data annually at the close of each academic year in June. The federal source publishes a banded rate (for example, "90-94%") instead of an exact number for cohorts small enough to risk identifying individual students. The state distribution chart, where shown, plots every school in the state with a published rate or band; schools whose rate is federally suppressed are excluded. Where the federal source publishes a band rather than an exact rate, the school is placed within its band using a stable, ID-derived offset, so its position is consistent across visits.
