Summary

Arrow Academy - Harvest Preparatory Academy is a small elementary school in Houston, TX, serving 141 students in grades K-6 as part of the Arrow Academy district, with over 89% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. Despite having a favorable student-to-teacher ratio of 12.8:1 and higher-than-average per-pupil spending of $15,307, the school has historically struggled, consistently ranking in the bottom 30% of Texas elementary schools over the past decade. This resource paradox is striking when compared to nearby schools like Thompson Elementary in the Aldine Independent School District (Isd), which has a higher student-to-teacher ratio (14.1:1) and lower per-pupil spending ($10,902) but ranks in the 71st percentile, far outperforming Arrow Academy's 30th percentile ranking.

Academic performance at Arrow Academy is significantly below peers and marked by extreme volatility. For example, in 5th Grade Reading during the 2025-2026 school year, Arrow Academy had a 0% proficiency rate, while nearby schools like Thompson Elementary (61.64%), Bussey Elementary (63.79%), and Milton Cooper Elementary (62.14%) all exceeded the state average of 58.47%. This "5th Grade Cliff" in reading is a recurring issue not seen in nearby schools. However, there is a bright spot in upper elementary math: 6th Grade Math proficiency (52.94%) and 5th Grade Math (50%) both exceeded state averages, a unique pattern compared to neighboring schools where math typically declines in higher grades.

Arrow Academy demonstrates notable strength in serving specific student subgroups, with Hispanic Students ranking in the 74th percentile and English Language Learner (ELL) Students in the 75th percentile statewide in 2024-2025. Yet this success is inconsistent, as African American students ranked in the 44th percentile and Special Education students in the 23rd percentile during the same period. The data also reveals a clear performance gap between this charter school and traditional public schools in the Aldine Independent School District (Isd), where several schools like Thompson Elementary, Bussey Elementary, and Marcella Elementary are outperforming Arrow Academy by a wide margin, suggesting the charter network may be less effective in this area despite higher resource allocation.
