Summary

Bay Elementary in Seabrook, TX, is a mid-sized school serving 519 students in grades PK-5 within the highly-rated Clear Creek Independent School District (Isd). While the school was historically a strong performer, earning 4-star ratings for many years, it has experienced a sharp and concerning decline, dropping to a 2-star rating and the 50th percentile statewide in the most recent data. This decline is a critical differentiator, as most nearby Clear Creek ISD peers, such as Lloyd R Ferguson Elementary and Falcon Pass Elementary, remain stable or are improving, ranking in the 76th to 88th percentile.

The most significant academic weakness is in mathematics, where proficiency rates in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades are consistently 10-20 percentage points below the district average. For example, 3rd-grade math proficiency is just 39.13% at Bay, compared to 55.62% district-wide. This struggle is not shared by nearby schools like I W And Eleanor Hyde Elementary, which posts math scores above 60%. The school also trails the district in every grade and subject tested, including 4th-grade reading (46% vs. 62.95%). Notably, the closest neighbor, G W Robinson, is just 2.24 miles away and outperforms Bay in nearly every test category, suggesting the challenges are school-specific rather than community-wide.

Despite having a favorable student-teacher ratio (14.8) and higher per-student spending ($10,717) than several higher-performing peers, Bay Elementary is at a critical juncture. The school has historically been a bright spot for English Language Learner students, but recent data shows a collapse in performance for its core student population. The school’s leadership and district support must urgently diagnose the root causes of this decline—particularly in math—to reverse the trend and return to its former level of excellence.

Open Quote I had my child at Bay for less than a year before we moved. First the office staff are extremely cold to the children. I never saw or heard any of them be very interactive to any child walking in there. Most of the time they would barely make eye contact with them but the staff isn't that way only with the children, they are the same way with parents. If you have questions it is more than obvious that they strongly dislike taking the time to respond. The interesting part is that the office ladies seem to all get along and they laugh and chit chat all the time so it seems strange that they can go from smiling and laughing to barely wanting to make eye contact with the parents. The nurse was also a bit indifferent towards the children in my opinion. Some of the parents would often discuss these issues while waiting for the kids to get released from school. However on a good note the principal was very nice its just a shame that not all of the staff is that way specially since they are dealing with children and are making such a big impact in their lives.
