Summary

Rennell Elementary is a high-performing, large elementary school (PK-5) in Cypress, TX, serving 1,260 students within the Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District (ISD), and it consistently ranks among the top 3% of all elementary schools in Texas.

Rennell Elementary stands out for its exceptional academic consistency, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger every year since 2015-2016. It is currently ranked in the 97th percentile statewide, placing it among elite peers like Pope Elementary (98th percentile) and McGown Elementary (98th percentile). However, Rennell’s performance for its low socio-economic status (SES) students is particularly noteworthy, ranking in the 98th percentile for this subgroup—a stark contrast to nearby schools with similar demographics. The school also excels in 5th Grade Science, with 62.62% of students proficient compared to the state average of just 29.57%, and it achieves these results with a relatively modest spending of $8,457 per student, which is lower than several lower-performing neighbors like Copeland Elementary ($9,351) and Andre Elementary ($10,037).

One interesting finding is that Rennell’s Gifted and Talented (GT) program ranks in the 66th percentile, which is its lowest subgroup performance, suggesting that while the school excels at bringing all students to high proficiency, its programming for the highest-achieving students may be an area for growth. Additionally, Rennell is part of a remarkable cluster of elite schools in northwest Cypress, with four schools within a 3-mile radius ranked in the 95th percentile or higher, creating a highly competitive and high-achieving educational environment.
