Summary

Bob Hope School - Elementary Campus is a public charter school in Port Arthur, TX, serving 650 students in grades PK-5, and it stands out as a high-performing school in a community where many nearby schools struggle. This school has earned a 4-star rating for five of the last six years and now ranks in the 88th percentile statewide, a remarkable achievement given that over 83% of its students come from low-income backgrounds. In contrast, nearby schools in the Port Arthur Independent School District (Isd), such as Travis Elementary, Lakeview Elementary, and Tyrrell Elementary, rank in the bottom 2nd to 12th percentile, making Bob Hope School a clear outlier in the area.

What truly sets Bob Hope School apart is its exceptional ability to help students from all backgrounds succeed. For the 2025-2026 school year, it ranks in the 98th percentile statewide for serving low-income students, proving that poverty does not have to limit academic achievement. The school also excels with its Hispanic and English Language Learner students, ranking in the 94th and 86th percentiles respectively. A standout feature is its bilingual program: 5th graders taking the Reading STAAR test in Spanish scored 85.71% proficient, far above the state average of 34.82%. While the school performs well overall, its special education program, ranking in the 65th percentile, is an area for growth. Interestingly, the school is particularly effective with male students, who rank in the 90th percentile compared to female students at 86%.

Compared to other local options, Bob Hope School consistently outperforms its peers. For example, Houston Elementary in the same district is a strong competitor, ranking in the 75th percentile, but Bob Hope School still leads in nearly every subject, especially math (78.57% vs. 58.75% in 3rd grade). The school's consistent year-over-year growth, climbing from the 76th percentile to the 88th percentile over four years, shows a clear upward trajectory. For parents seeking a school that delivers strong results for a diverse student body, Bob Hope School is a top choice in the Port Arthur area.
