Summary

Jackson/Roosevelt Elementary in Port Lavaca, TX, is a large PK-5 school serving 836 students in the Calhoun County Independent School District (Isd), and it has shown a remarkable upward trend in state rankings over the past decade, climbing from the 54th percentile to the 84th percentile and earning a solid 4-star rating. This school stands out for its exceptional ability to support students from low socio-economic backgrounds, with over 73% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, yet it ranks in the 97th percentile statewide for effectiveness with this group—a powerful sign of equity and opportunity. In contrast, nearby Harrison/Jefferson/Madison Elementary has declined from the 82nd to the 59th percentile over the same period, while Bloomington Elementary and Placedo Elementary in the Bloomington Independent School District (Isd) are in the bottom 5% of the state.

What truly differentiates Jackson/Roosevelt is its broad-based success across all student groups, including Hispanic, White, English Language Learners, and Special Education students, all of whom rank in the 80th percentile or higher in the most recent data. This is a stark contrast to Seadrift School, which struggles significantly in core subjects like Math and Science. The school also excels in upper elementary grades, with 4th and 5th-grade Reading scores (69.29% and 71.54% proficient) and 4th-grade Math scores (66.43%) well above district and state averages, showing that students continue to thrive as they progress. While Port O Connor School ranks higher (97th percentile), it is a very small school with much higher per-student spending, making Jackson/Roosevelt's large-scale success more impressive.

This school's rapid improvement—jumping from the 65th percentile in 2021-2022 to the 87th percentile by 2024-2025—suggests effective interventions are in place, though 5th-grade Science scores, while above the state average, remain a relative growth area. For parents, Jackson/Roosevelt offers a proven track record of helping all students achieve, especially those facing economic challenges, making it a standout choice in a region where many schools are struggling. It serves as a beacon of effective, equitable education within the Calhoun County Independent School District (Isd) and the broader Port Lavaca area.
