Summary

Northside Elementary in Angleton, TX, is a PK-5 school serving 479 students within the Angleton Independent School District (Isd), a district ranked in the 37th percentile statewide. The school has shown a volatile but generally upward trend in its state ranking over the past decade, currently sitting at the 62nd percentile (3 stars) for the 2025-2026 school year, a significant improvement from its 2018-2019 lows. With a moderate level of economic disadvantage (61.17% of students receiving free or reduced lunch) and a student-teacher ratio of 14.2, Northside offers a supportive learning environment.

Northside’s most standout feature is its exceptional support for Special Education students, ranking in the 94th percentile (5 stars) in the 2024-2025 school year—a massive outlier compared to its overall rank. The school also performs strongly for its African American student population, consistently ranking in the 74th percentile (4 stars). However, the school shows a "Jekyll and Hyde" performance in 4th-grade reading, with proficiency (63.16%) significantly higher than the district (55.84%) and state (53.04%) averages in the most recent data, a stark reversal from the previous year. A persistent weakness is 5th-grade Science, where only 27.5% of students were proficient in 2024-2025, below both district and state averages.

Compared to nearby schools, Northside lags behind Westside Elementary (75th percentile) within the same district, which outperforms Northside in nearly every subject despite having a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students (69.87%). It also trails Bess Brannen Elementary (88th percentile) in Brazosport Independent School District (Isd) and Danbury Elementary (78th percentile) in Danbury Independent School District (Isd), both of which have lower rates of economic disadvantage. Northside has the potential to be a much stronger school if it can replicate its success with specific subgroups across its entire student body and address its chronic underperformance in Science.
