Summary

School At St George Place is a mid-sized elementary school (PK-5) in Houston, TX, serving 781 students within the Houston Independent School District (Isd), and it stands out as a solidly performing neighborhood school in an area with a highly polarized educational landscape.

This school’s most defining feature is its role as a strong "middle ground" in a neighborhood with extreme highs and lows. Just 0.11 miles away is the Mandarin Immersion Magnet School, a top-tier magnet that draws many of the area's most academically motivated families. In contrast, schools like Benavidez Elementary and Rodriguez Elementary struggle with much lower performance. School At St George Place sits squarely in the middle, consistently ranking in the 60th to 80th percentile statewide. What makes this especially impressive is its exceptional work with students from low socio-economic backgrounds—ranking in the 86th percentile for this group—suggesting the school is highly effective at closing achievement gaps. It even outperforms the higher-ranked Kolter Elementary in this specific area, a testament to its equity-focused approach.

Academically, the school shows consistent strength in upper elementary reading, with 4th and 5th-grade proficiency rates often 10-20 points above the district average. However, math scores tend to dip in the upper grades, and 5th-grade science is a clear weakness, with only 17.3% of students proficient in 2024-2025. The school also recently saw a dramatic turnaround for its Asian student population, jumping from the 49th to the 92nd percentile. With a moderate budget of about $9,336 per student, School At St George Place achieves above-average results through effective resource allocation, making it a compelling choice for families seeking a well-rounded, inclusive neighborhood school.
