Summary

Etoile Academy Charter School is a K-8 charter school in Houston, TX, serving 676 students in the 77074 zip code, where over 94% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite spending significantly more per student ($12,700) than nearby schools, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 5% of Texas elementary schools over the past four years, earning a 0-star rating for the 2025-2026 school year and dropping to the 1st percentile statewide.

Academic performance at Etoile Academy is critically low across nearly all subjects and grade levels. For example, only 12.66% of 3rd graders were proficient in Reading and 11.39% in Math, compared to state averages of 51.08% and 44.33%, respectively. This pattern of single-digit and low-teen proficiency rates is consistent across all grades, with Science and Social Studies showing near-zero proficiency—just 1.49% of 5th graders were proficient in Science in 2024-2025. In stark contrast, nearby charter schools like KIPP Connect Houston Pri (0.26 miles away) achieve proficiency rates 30-50 percentage points higher in most subjects, such as 69.05% in 5th-grade Reading versus Etoile's 17.86%. Similarly, Sutton Elementary ranks in the 63rd percentile, while Etoile sits at the 1st percentile.

There are a few notable findings. The school shows a relative strength in 8th-grade Math, with 32.63% proficiency in 2025-2026, though this still falls below the state average. Additionally, there is a slight upward trend in Reading and Math proficiency as students move into 7th and 8th grades, suggesting the school may be more effective with older students. However, the high spending ($12,700 per student) compared to better-performing peers like KIPP Connect ($9,063) and Sutton ($10,465) raises concerns about resource allocation. The student-teacher ratio has also fluctuated significantly, from 13.6 to 19.3 in recent years, which may indicate staffing instability. Overall, Etoile Academy faces systemic challenges that affect all student subgroups, with the school ranking in the 1st percentile for most demographic groups.
