Elementary Schools in Columbus Independent School District (Isd)

Summary:

The Columbus Independent School District (Isd) in Texas has only one elementary school, Columbus Elementary, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The school's performance has declined over the past three years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 1651 out of 4651 Texas elementary schools in 2024-2025 to 3202 out of 4647 in 2022-2023.

Columbus Elementary's academic performance on STAAR tests is mixed compared to district and state averages. While the school's 3rd grade reading and 5th grade science proficiency rates exceed the state averages, its 4th and 5th grade reading and 5th grade math proficiency rates lag behind. Additionally, the school serves a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 67.18% of its students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year.

Despite the school's challenges, it maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14:1, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention and support for students. However, the school's declining statewide ranking and mixed academic performance suggest that it may need to implement targeted strategies and interventions to address these issues and improve student outcomes.
