Summary

Carroll Elementary in Frisco, TX, is a PK-5 public school serving 551 students within the highly-rated Frisco Independent School District (Isd), and it stands out for its unique socioeconomic diversity compared to nearby schools. With 45% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, Carroll Elementary has a much higher rate of economic diversity than its neighbors—for example, Nichols Elementary has just 4.09% and Newman Elementary has 6.73%. This context is key to understanding the school's performance, as it consistently ranks in the top 20% of Texas elementary schools, though its recent trajectory shows a dip from a 97th percentile peak in 2024-2025 to an 86th percentile ranking in 2025-2026.

Carroll Elementary excels in supporting specific student groups, particularly English Language Learners (ELL), who ranked in the 89th percentile in 2025-2026, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, who ranked in the 72nd percentile. The school also benefits from a notably low student-teacher ratio of 12.2:1, which is smaller than many nearby schools like Nichols Elementary (16:1) and Pink Elementary (15.9:1), suggesting more individualized attention. However, math performance is inconsistent across grade levels: while 4th-grade math was a standout at 80% proficient, 3rd-grade (48.15%) and 5th-grade (53.52%) math scores fell below district averages, indicating a need for targeted improvement.

Compared to the top-performing Nichols Elementary (99th percentile), which has a 4.09% free/reduced lunch rate and test scores 10-20 percentage points higher, Carroll Elementary's performance is impressive given its higher poverty rate. The school's per-student spending ($9,846) is in the middle of the pack, suggesting that its challenges and successes stem from resource allocation rather than funding levels. For parents, Carroll Elementary offers a supportive environment for diverse learners, with strong ELL and low-SES outcomes, but the recent volatility in overall rankings and math scores are areas to watch.
