Summary

Carlisle Elementary is a public elementary school in Plano, Texas, serving 472 students in grades K-5. It is part of the Plano Independent School District, which is ranked 230 out of 961 school districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Carlisle Elementary has a strong academic performance history, consistently ranking in the top 10% of Texas elementary schools. In the 2020-2021 school year, it ranked 409 out of 4,578 Texas elementary schools and received a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, its ranking has since declined, dropping to 902 out of 4,651 schools in the projected 2024-2025 ranking. Carlisle's students outperform state and district averages in STAAR Reading, Mathematics, and Science assessments, with 5th-grade students projected to have higher proficiency rates than the district and state in 2024-2025. The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher spending per student compared to the state average.

While Carlisle Elementary's overall performance is strong, there are some areas for potential improvement. The school's declining statewide ranking suggests its performance may not be keeping pace with improvements in other Texas elementary schools. Additionally, the school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with some subgroups, such as White and African American students, performing significantly better than others, like Asian and Multi-racial students. By learning from the best practices of nearby high-performing schools, such as Hughston Elementary and Bethany Elementary, and addressing the needs of underperforming student subgroups, Carlisle Elementary can continue to provide a quality education for its students.
