Summary

Dishman Elementary is a public elementary school in Beaumont, Texas, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 515 students. The school is part of the Beaumont Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 857 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Dishman Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with a ranking between 3,560 and 4,292 out of around 4,600 schools over the past several years. The school's performance on STAAR (State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness) tests is significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subjects, particularly in mathematics. For example, in 2024-2025, only 19.54%, 14.49%, and 18.06% of 3rd, 4th, and 5th-grade students, respectively, were proficient or better in STAAR Mathematics, compared to the state averages of 44.88%, 45.79%, and 46.24%.

When comparing Dishman Elementary to nearby schools in the Beaumont ISD, a similar pattern of underperformance is observed, with the majority of the nearby schools, such as Pietzsch/Mac Arthur Elementary, Fehl-Price Elementary, and Blanchette Elementary, also ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools. However, a few nearby schools, such as Regina Howell Elementary and Curtis Elementary, perform significantly better than Dishman Elementary and the district average on STAAR tests, suggesting that there may be successful practices or strategies being implemented at these schools that could potentially be replicated at Dishman.

Open Quote The teachers are wonderful but I would suggest a different school students are not rewarded for their hard work and my daughter said that she would rather be at her old school. She hated her fifth grade year and I would not take another child here again. Close Quote
