Summary

Red Duke Elementary in Manvel, TX, is a mid-sized school serving 711 students from Pre-K through 5th grade as part of the Alvin Independent School District (Isd), which is rated in the 76th percentile statewide. The school has historically been a solid performer, earning 4-star ratings for many years, but has experienced some recent ups and downs, with its overall state ranking dropping to the 60th percentile in 2024-2025 before rebounding to the 74th percentile in 2025-2026. This volatility sets it apart from nearby high-achieving peers like Glenn York Elementary and Shirley Dill Brothers Elementary, which have consistently ranked in the 94th-96th percentile over the same period.

One of the most interesting findings is a dramatic drop in 5th grade math proficiency that appears to be a regional issue, not unique to Red Duke. In 2024-2025, Red Duke's 5th grade math proficiency was just 14.89%, but nearby schools like Pomona Elementary (17.5%) and Shirley Dill Brothers Elementary (14.29%) saw similar declines, suggesting a problem with the state test or curriculum alignment rather than the school itself. The strong rebound in 6th grade math (75.56% at Red Duke) supports this theory. On a positive note, the school has shown promising improvement for English Language Learner students, jumping from the 67th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 74th percentile (4 stars) in 2025-2026, indicating that targeted programs are becoming more effective.

However, the school's Gifted and Talented program has lost its edge, dropping from a 92nd percentile (5-star) ranking in 2022-2023 to just the 65th percentile (3 stars) in 2025-2026—a decline that warrants attention. Additionally, Red Duke's performance varies across student groups, with stronger results for some subgroups compared to others. The school's student-teacher ratio of 15.5:1 is in line with peers, and its spending per student ($10,474) is slightly above the district average. While Red Duke faces challenges, its recent rebound suggests the 2024-2025 dip may have been a temporary setback rather than a permanent trend, and the school appears to be stabilizing back toward its historical performance levels.
