Summary

Lula Belle Goodman Elementary is a public elementary school in Fresno, Texas, serving 841 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Fort Bend Independent School District. Despite its proximity to several higher-performing schools, Lula Belle Goodman Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the district and state in academic assessments, with proficiency rates significantly below average. The school serves a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 84.9% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Lula Belle Goodman Elementary has ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools over the past decade, with an overall rating of just 1 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger. The school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with some groups, such as African American and multi-racial students, performing better than the overall student population, while others, like Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Special Education students, struggle significantly. Despite spending more per student ($12,184 in 2020-2021) than nearby higher-performing schools, the school's academic outcomes have not improved.

The unique challenges faced by Lula Belle Goodman Elementary, including its high percentage of economically disadvantaged students and the varying performance across different student subgroups, suggest that a targeted and comprehensive approach may be necessary to address the specific needs of the school's population. While additional resources alone may not be the sole solution, a focus on tailored interventions and support programs could be crucial in driving academic improvement at Lula Belle Goodman Elementary.
