Summary

KIPP Mosaic Academy School is a public charter school in Houston, TX (77085) serving 788 students in grades 6 through 10, part of the KIPP Texas Public Schools district, and serves a predominantly low socio-economic status population with nearly 90% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch.

This school stands out for its exceptional performance in high school-level English courses, significantly outperforming its district and most nearby schools. In the 2025-2026 school year, KIPP Mosaic scored 65.09% proficient in English II Reading (compared to the district's 51.71% and state's 59.88%) and 53.97% in English I Reading (vs. district 42.5%). This is a clear differentiator, as nearby schools like Stafford Middle, Sugar Grove Academy, and Welch Middle do not offer these courses or score significantly lower. However, the school shows inconsistent performance across subjects, excelling in Biology (70.44% vs. state 70.51%) but struggling in Social Studies (8th grade: 10.71% vs. state 31.69%) and Mathematics (6th grade: 32.26% vs. state 38.57%). An interesting "Algebra I Paradox" emerges: while 8th-grade math proficiency is near the state average, Algebra I EOC proficiency is only 42.54% (well below the state average of 54.03%), the opposite of what is seen at Sugar Grove Academy and Energized For Stem Academy Middle, where 8th-grade math scores are lower but Algebra I scores are exceptionally high.

KIPP Mosaic has a high student-to-teacher ratio of 22.4:1, the highest among all nearby schools (e.g., Stafford Middle is 13.9:1, Meyerland Middle is 15.6:1). The school's unique grade span (6-10) allows students to remain in the same environment for their first two years of high school, which may contribute to its strong English performance. While the school's overall rank is in the 37th percentile, its performance for African American students ranks in the 57th percentile (3 stars), suggesting particular effectiveness for this demographic. The school also has a proven track record of supporting its most vulnerable students, with At Risk Students ranking in the 88th percentile (4 stars) statewide in 2021-2022. Notably, the nearby Accelerated Intermediate Charter School (0.48 miles away) is a tiny school with only 21 students achieving near-perfect test scores, highlighting the challenge KIPP Mosaic faces as a large, comprehensive school serving a diverse, high-poverty population at a much larger scale.
