Summary

Fadden-McKeown-Chambliss Elementary in Beeville, TX, serves 574 students in grades 1 through 5 within the Beeville Independent School District (Isd), operating in a high-poverty area where over 86% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

This school stands out for its exceptional support of special education students, ranking in the 72nd percentile statewide in the 2025-2026 school year—a remarkable strength compared to its overall 32nd percentile ranking. Additionally, 4th grade mathematics is a clear bright spot, with 51.69% of students proficient in 2025-2026, exceeding both the district average (42.93%) and the state average (49.28%). This trend has been consistent for three years, contrasting sharply with the school's struggles in 3rd and 5th grade math. The Gifted and Talented program is another hidden gem, earning a 4-star rating and ranking in the 71st percentile statewide. However, 5th grade science remains a persistent challenge, with only 20% proficiency in 2024-2025, below district and state averages.

Compared to R A Hall Elementary, the other 1st-5th grade school in the same district with nearly identical poverty rates, Fadden-McKeown-Chambliss consistently outperforms in 4th and 5th grade math—for example, 51.69% versus 31.03% in 4th grade math in 2025-2026. The school's performance has been volatile over the past decade, swinging from the 3rd percentile to the 46th percentile, which is more erratic than nearby Skidmore-Tynan Elementary or St Mary's Academy Charter School. A recent shift has also emerged: the school now serves female students more effectively (41st percentile) than male students (25th percentile), a reversal from the previous year.
