Summary

Pecan Grove Elementary in Richmond, TX, is a mid-sized school serving 639 students in grades PK through 5, part of the Fort Bend Independent School District (Isd), and has recently earned a 4-star rating (79th percentile statewide) after a notable upward trend from a 3-star rating the previous year.

This school stands out most for its exceptional support of special education students, ranking in the 92nd percentile statewide and earning a 5-star rating—a true hidden gem for families with children who have special needs. It also shows a remarkable turnaround for students from low-income backgrounds, jumping from the 33rd percentile to the 72nd percentile over three years. Academically, Pecan Grove excels in 3rd-grade math, with 60.95% of students proficient, far outpacing the district (55.16%) and state (44.33%). However, math performance dips in 4th and 5th grades, suggesting a challenge in sustaining early gains. The school also shows a recent divergence in performance by gender, now serving male students (81st percentile) slightly better than female students (76th percentile).

Compared to nearby schools, Pecan Grove is a solid, reliable choice but not the top performer in the area. For instance, Frost Elementary (Lamar CISD), just 0.4 miles away, is a 5-star school (91st percentile) with a slightly lower poverty rate. Other nearby top-tier schools include Carolyn And Vernon Madden Elementary (97th percentile) and Malala Yousafzai (96th percentile). Pecan Grove also has a significantly lower rate of economic disadvantage (30.67% free/reduced lunch) than neighbors like James Patterson Elementary (67.65%) and Oyster Creek Elementary (62.26%). For parents prioritizing special education support or a school with strong early math and a proven track record of lifting up disadvantaged students, Pecan Grove is an excellent option.
