Summary

San Jacinto Elementary in Deer Park, TX, is a K-5 school serving 862 students within the Deer Park Independent School District (Isd), a district rated above average statewide. This school stands out as a reliable, mid-tier performer, offering a stable educational environment compared to the more volatile performance of nearby schools. While it is outperformed by high-achieving Deer Park Elementary (consistently in the 80th+ percentile), it significantly outperforms Deepwater Elementary (consistently in the bottom 25th percentile), making it a solid middle-ground choice within the district.

The most striking feature of San Jacinto is its exceptional performance in 6th-grade mathematics, with proficiency rates soaring to 94%, 83%, 80%, and 97% over the last four years—more than double the district and state averages. This suggests a highly effective math program that could serve as a model for other grade levels. Additionally, the school boasts a strong bilingual/ESL program, with Spanish-language STAAR scores far exceeding district and state averages. For example, 4th-grade Spanish Math proficiency reached 81.82% compared to the district's 50% and the state's 29.41%, highlighting a stark contrast to Deepwater Elementary, which struggles with this subgroup.

However, San Jacinto faces challenges. Its overall state ranking has declined from a pre-pandemic peak of the 82nd percentile in 2017-2018 to the 61st percentile currently, with incomplete recovery for all student groups. Notably, performance for White students has dropped significantly, from the 59th percentile in 2022-2023 to the 38th percentile in 2025-2026, while Hispanic and low-income students continue to perform well. The school is also surrounded by high-performing La Porte Independent School District (Isd) schools like Heritage Elementary (90th percentile) and College Park Elementary (83rd percentile), which may attract families seeking top-tier performance. With moderate per-student spending ($10,535), the school demonstrates that resource allocation and instructional quality, not just funding, drive success.
