Summary

Scott Elementary is a mid-sized school in McKinney, TX, serving 587 students from Pre-K through 5th grade as part of the highly-regarded Frisco Independent School District (Isd). The school has a strong academic track record, consistently earning high marks from Schooldigger, though it is not the top performer in its immediate area. It is outperformed by nearby schools like Liscano Elementary (96th percentile) and Jim Spradley Elementary (98th percentile), placing Scott in a solid second tier among its closest peers. The school serves a relatively affluent population, with a low percentage of students receiving free/reduced lunch, and maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of 13.9:1.

A key area of concern is 4th Grade Mathematics, where only 50.91% of students were proficient in the 2025-2026 school year—significantly below the district average of 69.35% and a stark contrast to top-performing neighbors like Liscano (73.5%) and Spradley (82.14%). This weakness is not a one-year anomaly; Scott has consistently fallen below the district average in 4th grade math for four consecutive years, suggesting a systemic issue with curriculum or instruction. On a positive note, the school excels in 5th Grade Science, consistently outperforming both district and state averages by wide margins. Additionally, Scott is remarkably effective with English Language Learner (ELL) students, who ranked in the 98th percentile statewide in 2023-2024, a standout achievement compared to many other schools.

Scott Elementary sits at a unique intersection of three high-performing districts—Frisco Independent School District (Isd), Prosper Independent School District (Isd), and McKinney Independent School District (Isd)—creating a highly competitive environment where families have excellent options. The school’s per-student spending ($8,401) is below average compared to nearby peers, yet it achieves strong academic results, indicating efficient use of resources. While Scott has experienced a slight downward trend in its overall state percentile rank over the last four years, from 96th to 87th, it remains a solid choice for families seeking a well-rounded elementary education in a supportive community.

Open Quote Scott Elementary is a welcoming place. The principal, teachers and staff are focused on meeting the needs of all Scott students through differentiated instruction, best practices and research based principles, all the while, making Scott a happy place. If I ever have a question, I am treated with respect and concern. I feel confident in Mrs. Brewer's leadership and the teachers and staff exude dedication to educating our children. Close Quote
