Spring Lake Park Elementary

Public Grades PK, KG-5
Summary

Spring Lake Park Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in the Texarkana Independent School District (ISD) in Texas, with 374 students. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Texas elementary schools over the past several years, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, and its academic performance on state assessments (STAAR) has been significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas.

Spring Lake Park Elementary's academic performance, as measured by STAAR assessments, is significantly lower than the Texarkana ISD and Texas state averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 18.52% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in reading, compared to 34.58% for Texarkana ISD and 52.02% for the state. The school also has a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 92.78% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages. Nearby schools, such as Wake Village Elementary, Waggoner Creek Elementary, and Nash Elementary, while still below the state average, have significantly higher academic performance and rankings compared to Spring Lake Park Elementary.

The data also includes information about Martha & Josh Morriss Math & Engineering Elementary, a magnet school in the Texarkana ISD that has consistently ranked among the top 1% of Texas elementary schools, with exceptional performance on STAAR assessments. This stark contrast highlights the potential impact of targeted educational programs and resources on student outcomes. While the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Spring Lake Park Elementary is likely a significant contributing factor to the school's academic challenges, the varying performance of different student subgroups suggests that the school may need to implement targeted interventions and support to address the specific needs of these populations.
