Summary

Shorehaven Elementary is a public elementary school in Garland, Texas, serving 360 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Garland Independent School District. The school has shown inconsistent academic performance on STAAR tests, with some grades and subjects performing better than others. In 2024-2025, Shorehaven's 3rd-5th grade students outperformed the district and state averages in reading and math, but their 5th grade science proficiency was significantly lower.

Shorehaven Elementary serves a diverse student population, with a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students. The school's performance on STAAR assessments varied across different student subgroups, suggesting the need to address equity issues and provide additional support for its most vulnerable students. When compared to nearby schools, such as Hillside Academy For Excel and Kimberlin Academy For Excel, Shorehaven Elementary generally performs below the district and state averages, particularly in reading and science.

To address these challenges, Shorehaven Elementary may need to focus on implementing more effective and consistent instructional strategies, providing additional support for its most vulnerable student populations, and learning from the best practices of nearby high-performing schools. By addressing these areas, the school can work to improve its overall academic performance and better serve the needs of its diverse student community.
