Summary:
Rosharon, Texas, is served by seven schools spanning elementary and alternative high school grades, split between the Alvin Independent School District (Isd) and the Fort Bend Independent School District (Isd), with no traditional middle or high schools within the city limits. The standout academic performer is Bel Nafegar Sanchez Elementary, the only school in the city to earn a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, ranking in the top 27% of Texas schools and consistently scoring at or above its district average in core subjects. In contrast, Heritage Rose Elementary is the lowest-ranked elementary school with a 2-star rating and the highest percentage of economically disadvantaged students at 71.97%, though it shows a notable strength in Spanish-language STAAR tests, with 78.57% of 3rd graders proficient in Math compared to just 27.28% statewide.
Among the Alvin ISD elementary schools, Savannah Lakes Elementary has shown the most dramatic improvement, jumping from a 2-star to a 3-star rating and climbing 875 places in state rankings over two years, with 5th-grade Reading proficiency surpassing the district average. The data reveals a clear performance gap between the two districts: all four Alvin ISD elementary schools rank in the top 76% of Texas schools, while the sole Fort Bend ISD elementary school, Heritage Rose, ranks in the bottom 36%. A fascinating anomaly appears in 6th-grade Math scores across Alvin ISD elementary schools, where proficiency rates range from 61.54% to 86.11%, far exceeding district and state averages, suggesting advanced math programs for select students.
The alternative high schools offer unique options: Fort Bend County Alter is a very small school with only 15 students, a 3:1 student-teacher ratio, and the highest spending per student at $28,220, while Almeta Crawford High School maintains a low dropout rate of 0.4%. With over 4,000 elementary students but no traditional high school in Rosharon, families must look to schools outside the city for secondary education. Overall, the Alvin ISD elementary schools provide stronger academic performance, while the Fort Bend ISD schools offer specialized programs and support for diverse student needs.
