Summary

Fairmont Elementary in Pasadena, TX, is a K-5 school serving 776 students as part of the top-ranked Deer Park Independent School District (Isd), and it has a long history of strong academic performance, consistently earning top ratings from SchoolDigger for nearly a decade.

Fairmont stands out for its exceptional academic results, outperforming both its district and the state average in every grade and subject tested in recent years. A particularly impressive highlight is its 6th-grade math program, where 100% of students were proficient, compared to just 44.59% district-wide and 38.57% statewide. This success extends to supporting students from all backgrounds, with the school ranking in the 94th and 95th percentiles statewide for its effectiveness with economically disadvantaged students. When compared to nearby schools, the difference is stark. For instance, Jensen Elementary and Teague Elementary in the Pasadena Independent School District (Isd) consistently rank in the bottom half of the state, while Ignite Community School - Pasadena, a charter school less than a mile away, ranks in the bottom 5% of Texas elementary schools.

While Fairmont remains a strong choice, there are a few trends for parents to watch. Its statewide ranking has seen a slight decline from a peak of the 93rd percentile to the 75th percentile in the most recent year. Additionally, recent data shows some mixed results for specific student groups, including a drop in performance for White students and English Language Learners, and a notable decline in the Gifted and Talented program's ranking. Despite these points, Fairmont’s consistent track record of excellence, especially in math and for students from all economic backgrounds, makes it a clear academic leader in the area.
