Public Grades

Summary

Spring Valley Elementary is a public elementary school in Dallas, Texas, serving 396 students in grades PK-6 and part of the Richardson Independent School District (ISD).

Despite receiving relatively high per-student funding of $11,705, Spring Valley Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with only 31.43% of 3rd-grade students proficient or better in STAAR Reading and just 17.14% proficient or better in STAAR Mathematics. The school's performance is particularly low for male students, English Language Learners, and students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with these subgroups ranking in the bottom 10-20% of Texas elementary schools. In comparison, nearby Spring Creek Elementary, Arapaho Classical Magnet, and Prestonwood Elementary consistently outperform Spring Valley on academic measures, with significantly higher proficiency rates on STAAR tests and lower percentages of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

The high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds at Spring Valley Elementary, with 86.11% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, is likely a contributing factor to the school's struggles. Additionally, the school's student population has seen a decrease in the percentage of White and Asian students in recent years, with the majority of students being Hispanic. Despite the school's efforts to address these challenges, the persistent achievement gaps for certain student subgroups suggest that a more comprehensive approach may be needed to improve academic outcomes at Spring Valley Elementary.
