Summary

Lemm Elementary is a mid-sized school in the Klein Independent School District (Isd), serving 618 students from Pre-K through 5th grade in a community with moderate economic diversity, where about 47% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Lemm Elementary stands out for its exceptional support of Hispanic students and English Language Learners (ELLs), ranking in the 90th percentile statewide for Hispanic student performance and consistently in the 75th-83rd percentile for ELLs over the last three years. However, the school shows a notable split in academic performance: while reading scores generally meet or exceed state averages (e.g., 5th-grade reading at 62.96% vs. the state average of 58.47%), math proficiency lags behind, particularly in upper grades, with 5th-grade math at just 51.38% compared to the Klein ISD average of 60.25%. This math gap has persisted for several years, suggesting a need for targeted improvement. Nearby Haude Elementary, just 1.58 miles away in the same district, outperforms Lemm overall (83rd percentile vs. 73rd) and achieves significantly higher reading scores, making it a strong alternative for families prioritizing literacy.

Lemm Elementary sits on a boundary between the high-performing Klein ISD (82nd percentile) and the struggling Spring Independent School District (Isd) (22nd percentile), creating a stark contrast with nearby schools like Ponderosa Elementary (1st percentile) and Salyers Elementary (2nd percentile), where proficiency rates are often in the single digits. This context highlights the critical advantage of being in a top-tier district. While Lemm has shown recent improvements in special education (jumping from the 36th to 68th percentile), performance for Asian students remains a concern at the 28th percentile. Overall, Lemm is a solid school with clear strengths in supporting diverse learners, but families should weigh its math challenges and consider nearby options like Haude for a more balanced academic program.
