Summary

Johnson Elementary is a PK-4 school in Bryan, TX, serving 445 students as part of the Bryan Independent School District (Isd). This school stands out as a consistent high performer, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger every year for the past decade, a stability that many nearby schools lack. For example, while Fannin Elementary and Crockett Elementary have fluctuated between 1 and 3 stars, Johnson has remained a reliable choice for families. It also operates with notable efficiency, spending just $9,049 per student—the lowest in the district—while achieving top-tier results, a sharp contrast to schools like Fannin, which spends over $11,000 per student but ranks much lower.

Johnson Elementary excels at accelerating student learning, particularly between 3rd and 4th grade. In the most recent testing year, 4th graders scored 68.24% proficient in Reading and 64.71% proficient in Math, far exceeding both district and state averages. The school also provides an exceptional environment for its Gifted and Talented (GT) students, who ranked in the 95th percentile statewide—a dramatic improvement and a standout metric compared to any other nearby school. Additionally, the school serves its White and Hispanic student populations exceptionally well, with both groups ranking in the 80th percentile or higher. However, the school faces a persistent challenge in supporting its African American students, who have ranked in the lower percentiles over the last three years, highlighting an achievement gap that needs attention.

An interesting comparison is with Sam Houston Elementary, another high-performing Bryan ISD school just 2.29 miles away. While Sam Houston has a lower rate of economic disadvantage and a slightly higher overall rank, Johnson’s 4th-grade scores are competitive, and its GT program performance is dramatically higher. This suggests Johnson may be doing a better job challenging its highest-achieving students. Overall, Johnson Elementary is a stable, efficient school that delivers strong academic growth and exceptional support for advanced learners, making it a standout choice within the Bryan ISD.
