Summary

Robert B Sewell Elementary is a public elementary school in Sachse, Texas, serving 708 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Garland Independent School District. The school has shown mixed performance on state assessments, with strong results in 5th-grade reading and math but lower performance in 3rd and 4th grades compared to district and state averages.

Robert B Sewell Elementary has some areas of strength, particularly in the academic achievement of certain student subgroups. The school's English Language Learners and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds have performed exceptionally well, ranking among the top Texas elementary schools in reading.
