Summary

Alvis C Story Elementary is a K-6 school in Allen, TX, serving 530 students within the highly-rated Allen Independent School District (Isd), but it has experienced a dramatic decline from a 93rd percentile ranking in 2017-2018 to a 37th percentile ranking in 2025-2026.

This school’s most defining feature is its steep drop in performance, which sets it apart from nearby schools. For example, Max O Vaughan Elementary (91st percentile) and Bolin Elementary (83rd percentile) are both performing at levels Story once achieved. Test scores at Story are now significantly below district averages—for instance, only 25% of 4th graders were proficient in math compared to the district’s 64.77%. The school spends more per student ($11,727) than high-performing peers like Vaughan ($8,761), but this higher spending has not yet improved outcomes. A bright spot is 6th-grade math, where 44.83% of students were proficient, exceeding the state average of 38.57%.

Story’s challenges are closely tied to a rapid demographic shift, with its economically disadvantaged population nearly doubling from 28.51% in 2022-2023 to 46.6% in 2024-2025—the highest rate among nearby Allen ISD elementary schools. The school serves its Special Education and English Language Learner students relatively well, but struggles with students from low socio-economic backgrounds. Just two miles away, Joe V Hart Elementary in Lovejoy Independent School District (Isd) ranks in the 98th percentile, highlighting that Story’s issues are specific to its changing student needs rather than the area. A brief resurgence in 2022-2023 (75th percentile) shows the school can succeed, but it has yet to find a formula to sustain that success.
