Summary

Walt Disney Elementary in Alvin, TX, is a mid-sized school serving 457 students in grades 3 through 5 as part of the Alvin Independent School District (Isd), a well-regarded district ranking in the top 25% of Texas.

This school stands out for its unique grade configuration—it is the only nearby elementary that exclusively serves upper grades (3-5), likely receiving students from R L Stevenson Pri (PK-2). This focused structure appears to be a strength, especially in math: for three consecutive years, Walt Disney’s 6th-grade students taking the STAAR Math test have achieved proficiency rates as high as 92%, dramatically exceeding district and state averages. However, the school faces challenges in math instruction for its own 3rd-5th graders, where proficiency has declined and often falls below district averages. Reading performance generally meets or slightly exceeds state averages. The school also shows a notable strength in serving male students, ranking in the 72nd percentile statewide, while its support for English Language Learners is an area needing improvement.

Compared to nearby schools, Walt Disney is a solid, consistent performer. Bob And Betty Nelson Elementary (3.41 miles away) outperforms it in overall rank and test scores, likely due to a lower rate of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch (60% vs. 70%). Mark Twain Elementary (6.34 miles away), also in Alvin ISD, has shown dramatic recent improvement, jumping to the 80th percentile. Walt Disney’s greatest asset is its ability to accelerate students in math, a success story that could be replicated in other subjects. With a favorable student-teacher ratio of 12.6:1 and spending slightly above the district average, the school is well-positioned to build on its strengths.
