Summary

Rann Elementary in Decatur, TX, is a PK-5 school in the Decatur Independent School District (Isd) serving 471 students, and it has experienced a notable decline in academic performance over recent years, dropping from a 4-star rating to a 2-star rating. While the school maintains a favorable student-to-teacher ratio of 13.1 and has a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (62.63% free/reduced lunch), its overall state ranking has fallen from the 73rd percentile in 2020-2021 to the 35th percentile in the most recent data. This decline is particularly striking when compared to nearby schools in the same district, such as Young Elementary, which serves a similar demographic profile (57.08% free/reduced lunch) but is ranked in the 81st percentile (4 stars), and Stem Academy At Enis Elementary, located just 0.56 miles away, which holds a 3-star rating and a 68th percentile ranking.

Academically, Rann Elementary shows significant weaknesses, especially in 5th-grade science, where only 10.59% of students were proficient in 2024-2025—far below the district average of 22.33% and the state average of 29.57%. Math performance also reveals a troubling pattern: 3rd graders outperformed the state average (47.14% vs. 44.88%), but 4th-grade proficiency plummeted to 26.83%, well below district and state averages. This "tale of two grades" suggests a potential issue with the 4th-grade math curriculum or instruction. Additionally, female students and Gifted and Talented students are underperforming, with the latter ranking in the bottom 12th percentile statewide, indicating the school may not be effectively challenging its highest-achieving students.

Despite these challenges, there is a bright spot in 5th-grade reading, where 59.52% of students were proficient in 2024-2025, outperforming both the district (59.87%) and state (57.83%) averages. This strength offers a foundation for improvement. The school’s post-pandemic recovery has been notably weak, failing to regain its pre-2020 standing, and the proximity of higher-performing schools like Stem Academy At Enis Elementary and Young Elementary highlights that the district has the capacity for high performance, suggesting that differences in school leadership, culture, or instructional strategies may be key factors at Rann Elementary.
