Summary

Forest Ridge is a high-performing public elementary school (PK-4) in College Station, TX, serving 489 students as part of the highly-rated College Station Independent School District (Isd). This school has earned a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for six consecutive years, ranking an impressive 155th out of 4,627 Texas elementary schools (97th percentile) in the 2025-2026 school year. With a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.3:1 and only 27% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, Forest Ridge stands out as a consistently excellent choice for families in the area.

Forest Ridge's academic performance is exceptional, with STAAR test scores that consistently outperform both district and state averages by 15-25 percentage points across all subjects and grades. For example, in 4th grade math, 85.11% of students were proficient compared to the district average of 63.36% and state average of 49.28%. The school also earns 5-star ratings for its work with all student subgroups, including Female, Male, Hispanic, White, Gifted & Talented, and Special Education students. While Forest Ridge and Greens Prairie Elementary (2.37 miles away) are the two highest-performing schools in the district, Forest Ridge manages to outperform Greens Prairie in overall state ranking (155 vs. 553) despite serving a student population with a higher rate of economic disadvantage (27% vs. 13.92%).

Forest Ridge's ranking history shows a remarkable pattern of sustained excellence, never ranking below the 82nd percentile over the last ten years and staying in the 92nd percentile or higher for eight of those years. This consistency makes it a reliably excellent choice, unlike some nearby schools that show more volatility in their rankings. However, the most recent data shows a notable relative decline in performance for its Low Socioeconomic Status (SES) students, who ranked in the 75th percentile (3 stars) compared to the 97th percentile (5 stars) the year prior. This is an area to watch, as it may indicate new challenges in supporting this subgroup, or it could be a statistical anomaly due to a small sample size.
