Summary

Lavace Stewart Elementary in Kemah, TX, is a mid-sized school serving 660 students in grades PK-5 within the highly-rated Clear Creek Independent School District (Isd), though its overall performance has declined to a 3-star rating (61st percentile) for the 2025-2026 school year.

This school presents a unique story of two very different programs. On one hand, its Spanish-language instruction is a standout success, with 80% of 3rd graders testing in Spanish achieving proficiency in Reading—far exceeding the district average of 29.71%. On the other hand, its English-language program is struggling, with 4th Grade Reading proficiency at 54.02% compared to 62.95% district-wide and 67-79% at nearby peer schools like Art And Pat Goforth Elementary and Sandra Mossman Elementary. The school also serves a significantly higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students (60.61% free/reduced lunch) compared to these high-performing peers, which often correlates with additional challenges. A persistent weakness is 5th Grade Science, where proficiency hovers around 19-20%, roughly 10-15 points below the district average and far behind schools like Lloyd R Ferguson Elementary (45.38%).

Interestingly, Lavace Stewart spends more per student ($10,694) than many of its higher-performing district peers, suggesting the issue isn't a lack of funding but how resources are allocated. While it outperforms nearby Dickinson Independent School District (Isd) schools like Jake Silbernagel Elementary in English scores, its overall ranking has dropped from the 84th percentile a decade ago, while nearly all its Clear Creek ISD peers have maintained 4-star ratings. For parents, this school offers a strong bilingual program for Spanish-speaking students but requires careful attention to its English-language and science instruction.
