Summary

Green Valley Elementary in Houston, TX, serves 565 students from Pre-K through 5th grade within the Galena Park Independent School District (Isd), a district that overall earns a 3-star rating. While the school has historically ranked in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools, recent data shows a slight improvement to the 32nd percentile (2 stars) for the 2025-2026 school year. The school serves a high-needs population, with over 93% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, and it invests heavily in resources, spending $13,670 per student with a low student-teacher ratio of 12.4:1.

Compared to nearby schools in the district, Green Valley faces significant challenges. It is the lowest-ranked elementary school in its cluster, while schools like Tice Elementary (71st percentile) and North Shore Elementary (74th percentile) achieve 3- and 4-star ratings. Green Valley's STAAR test scores in Reading are consistently 15-20 percentage points below the district average, with only 25.97% of 3rd graders proficient in Reading compared to 46.74% for the district. This underperformance is notable given the school's higher spending and lower student-teacher ratio compared to peers like North Shore Elementary, which achieves much better results with a higher ratio (17.1:1) and lower spending ($11,004).

However, Green Valley has a distinct strength in its Spanish-language instruction. On the STAAR Spanish exams, the school often outperforms both the district and state, such as in 2022-2023 when 67% of 5th graders were proficient in Spanish Reading versus 27% for the district. This suggests the bilingual program is a hidden gem, effectively supporting English Language Learners. Additionally, the school's performance with "At Risk" students has shown promise, ranking in the 65th percentile in 2020-2021, indicating that replicating those strategies could help lift overall outcomes. The key challenge remains translating its significant investment in staffing and resources into consistent academic gains across all subjects.
