Summary

Clear Lake City Elementary is a mid-sized school in Houston, TX, serving 507 students in grades PK-5 within the highly-rated Clear Creek Independent School District (Isd). This school is a "late bloomer," meaning its students show remarkable academic acceleration from 3rd to 5th grade. For example, 5th-grade reading proficiency (74.47%) and math proficiency (60.64%) both surpass district and state averages, even though 3rd-grade scores start below those benchmarks. This consistent trend over three years suggests a deliberate focus on building strong foundational skills that pay off in upper elementary.

One of the school's standout features is its exceptional support for Special Education students, who ranked in the 88th percentile statewide—a higher rating than the school's overall performance. This is a significant strength compared to many nearby schools. However, the school faces challenges with early-grade math; 3rd-grade math proficiency (42.5%) lags behind neighbors like Brookwood Elementary (75%+) and C D Landolt Elementary (68.57%). While Clear Lake City is a solid 4-star school, it sits in a competitive cluster, with Brookwood (5-star, 95th percentile) just 2.6 miles away. In contrast, G H Whitcomb Elementary, only 0.7 miles away, ranks much lower (37th percentile), highlighting how school outcomes can vary dramatically within the same community.

Science is a hidden strength, with 5th-grade scores (47.06% proficient) far exceeding district and state averages. Yet, the school's performance for other student groups is inconsistent; for instance, Hispanic students dropped from a 5-star ranking to a 3-star ranking over three years. Overall, Clear Lake City Elementary offers a high-quality education that demonstrably improves student outcomes from 3rd to 5th grade, making it a strong choice for families who value long-term academic growth and specialized support for students with special needs.
