Summary:
The Keene Independent School District (Isd) in Texas is home to two elementary schools: Keene Elementary and The Summit Leadership Academy. These schools serve students from prekindergarten through 5th grade and are located in the Keene area.
Keene Elementary has a relatively high statewide ranking, placing 1507 out of 4578 Texas elementary schools in the 2020-2021 school year. The school spends a significant amount per student at $10,059 for the 2020-2021 school year. In contrast, The Summit Leadership Academy has shown improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 2007 out of 4647 Texas elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 1922 out of 4675 in 2023-2024. The Summit Leadership Academy also outperforms the Keene ISD and Texas state averages in 5th-grade STAAR reading and science proficiency rates.
While both schools have areas of strength, they also face challenges. Keene Elementary has a higher percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at 73.75% compared to The Summit Leadership Academy's 65.24% for the 2023-2024 school year. Additionally, both schools lag behind the state averages in 3rd and 4th-grade STAAR reading and mathematics proficiency rates, indicating a need for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes, especially in the earlier grades.
