Summary

Sheridan Elementary is a public elementary school in Katy, Texas, serving 947 students in grades PK-5. It is part of the Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District (CFISD), which is ranked 321 out of 961 school districts in Texas and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Sheridan Elementary faces several challenges, including consistently lower academic performance compared to district and state averages on STAAR tests, with its 3rd grade reading proficiency rate at 46.38% compared to the district's 59.7% and the state's 52.02%. The school's performance has been declining over the years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 1509 out of 4320 Texas elementary schools in 2014-2015 to 2641 out of 4651 in 2024-2025. Additionally, the school has a relatively high student-to-teacher ratio of 14.8, compared to the 13.6 ratio at the nearby Emery Elementary.

While Sheridan Elementary's academic performance is generally lower than that of nearby schools within the same district, such as Walker Elementary and McFee Elementary, the school's per-student spending of $8,582 in the 2020-2021 school year is lower than the district average of $9,593 for Emery Elementary. This suggests that the school's resources may not be translating into better academic outcomes. Addressing these challenges and leveraging the school's diverse student population could be key to improving the educational experience and outcomes for the students at Sheridan Elementary.
