Summary

Cloverleaf Elementary in Houston, TX, serves 821 students in grades PK-5 within the Galena Park Independent School District (Isd), operating in a high-poverty area where over 95% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school has experienced a significant decline from its pre-pandemic performance, dropping from the 63rd percentile in 2019 to the 28th percentile in 2023, though it has stabilized around the 35th-38th percentile in recent years.

A standout bright spot is Cloverleaf's exceptional performance in 5th Grade Mathematics, where 61.06% of students were proficient in the 2025-2026 school year—outperforming both the district (55.86%) and state (47.38%) averages, and even competing with top-performing nearby schools like Woodland Acres Elementary (84th percentile) and North Shore Elementary (74th percentile). However, the school struggles with a widening gender gap: female students have improved to the 54th percentile, while male students have declined to the 23rd percentile. Additionally, Cloverleaf has a higher student-teacher ratio (16.4:1) and lower per-student spending ($11,781) compared to nearby schools like Green Valley Elementary ($13,670) and Woodland Acres ($12,926), which may contribute to its inconsistent performance across subjects.

Despite these challenges, Cloverleaf has a strong track record with special education students, who ranked in the 76th percentile in 2023, and at-risk students, who reached the 86th percentile in 2019. The school also offers STAAR testing in Spanish, though performance on these tests remains very low, with 0% of 5th graders proficient in Reading, Math, and Science in 2023-2024. Comparing Cloverleaf to nearby Woodland Acres—which serves a similar high-poverty population but spends $1,145 more per student and has a lower student-teacher ratio (14:1)—suggests that increased investment and smaller class sizes could be key to helping Cloverleaf recover its pre-pandemic performance levels.
