Elementary Schools in Excelsior Independent School District (Isd)


Summary:

The Excelsior Independent School District (Isd) in Texas has only one elementary school, Excelsior Elementary, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. Despite the school's small class sizes and relatively high per-student spending, it has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Texas elementary schools based on the SchoolDigger rankings, with a 0-1 star rating out of 5.

Excelsior Elementary's academic performance is a significant concern, with the school's STAAR test scores consistently falling below the Excelsior ISD and Texas state averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in STAAR Reading ranged from 30% (3rd grade) to 100% (8th grade), compared to the Texas state average of 48.85% to 54.09%. Similarly, in STAAR Mathematics, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 0% (7th grade) to 28.57% (5th grade), compared to the Texas state average of 31.89% to 48.96%.

The school's student population is predominantly White (83.78%), with a high percentage of students (75.68%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low-income student population. While the school's low student-teacher ratio of 7:1 and high per-student spending of $17,885 for the 2020-2021 school year suggest a focus on personalized attention and resources, these factors have not translated into improved academic outcomes for the students. The data suggests that Excelsior Elementary faces significant challenges in terms of academic performance and student demographics, and targeted interventions and support may be necessary to improve educational outcomes for the students.
