of 4,651 Texas Elementary Schools

Better than 11% of Texas elementary schools

Summary

Ignite Community School - Mainland is a public charter elementary school serving grades PK-8 in La Marque, Texas, with an enrollment of 337 students. The school is part of the Texas College Preparatory Academies district, which is ranked 334 out of 961 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite spending more per student than the state average, Ignite Community School - Mainland has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Texas elementary schools over the past several years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's STAAR test scores are significantly lower than the state and district averages across all grade levels and subjects, particularly in mathematics, where only 9.38% of 4th graders and 25% of 7th graders met proficiency standards in 2024-2025.

The school serves a high-need student population, with 93.18% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024 and a higher percentage of minority students compared to the state. While these factors may contribute to the school's academic challenges, the consistently low rankings, poor test scores, and higher dropout rates suggest the need for a comprehensive review of its educational practices, resource allocation, and support systems to better meet the needs of its students.
