Summary

Sheridan Elementary is a large PK-5 school in Katy, TX, serving 919 students within the Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District (Isd), where about 80% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, placing it in a high-poverty area alongside nearby peers like Hoover Elementary and McFee Elementary.

One standout finding is Sheridan’s exceptional recent performance with its Asian student subgroup, which ranked in the 95th percentile statewide in 2025-2026—a dramatic jump from the bottom 20th percentile just two years prior. This suggests a targeted program or strategy is working well for this group, though the school’s overall math scores remain a persistent weakness, with only 27.82% of 3rd graders proficient in 2025-2026 compared to 43.68% in the district and 44.33% statewide. Additionally, there is a notable gender gap: male students ranked in the 57th percentile, while female students ranked in the 24th percentile, a 33-point difference not seen in nearby schools like McRoberts Elementary or Jack & Sharon Rhoads Elementary.

Despite spending the least per student among comparable schools—$8,582 in 2020-2021, versus $10,359 at Emery Elementary and over $11,600 at Katy ISD schools—Sheridan achieves a similar overall ranking (42nd percentile) to peers like Hemmenway Elementary (31st percentile). This suggests operational efficiency, but also raises questions about whether more investment in math intervention could close gaps. Science scores are a universal challenge in this area, with Sheridan’s 5th-grade proficiency at 23.66% in 2024-2025, mirroring struggles at Robinson Elementary and Brosnahan Elementary. The school’s inconsistent subgroup performance—like Gifted and Talented students swinging from the 96th to 33rd percentile—indicates that success may depend more on specific cohorts than stable school-wide systems.
