Summary

Deer Park Elementary in Deer Park, TX, is a K-5 school serving 661 students within the Deer Park Independent School District (Isd), and it consistently ranks among the top 20% of elementary schools in Texas, making it a standout choice for families in the area.

This school is a clear academic leader in its district, with math proficiency rates (60-66% in grades 3-5) far exceeding both the district and state averages. In contrast, nearby schools like San Jacinto Elementary, Jp Dabbs Elementary, and Carpenter Elementary often score below the district average in math. Deer Park Elementary also excels with its Gifted and Talented program, which recently ranked in the 97th percentile statewide, and has shown remarkable improvement in supporting "At Risk" students, jumping from the 35th to the 88th percentile in recent years. A fascinating data point is the school's math acceleration program, where students taking 6th-grade math while still on campus achieved 100% proficiency in recent years, signaling strong preparation for advanced coursework.

Despite serving a relatively low-poverty population (36% free/reduced lunch), Deer Park Elementary achieves top results while spending less per student ($9,552) than any comparable school in the area—for example, Parkwood Elementary spends $14,863 and McMasters Elementary spends $13,661. This efficiency, combined with a healthy 15:1 student-to-teacher ratio, makes it a high-value option. While the school performs exceptionally well for Hispanic, Low-SES, and GT students, families should note that performance for White students has declined recently, dropping from the 80th to the 54th percentile, which may warrant a closer look to ensure all groups are thriving.
