Summary

Stephen F Austin Elementary is a public elementary school in Baytown, Texas, serving 817 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District, which is ranked 701 out of 961 districts in the state.

Stephen F Austin Elementary has shown a mixed academic performance compared to the district and state averages. While the school's proficiency rates in STAAR Reading and Mathematics were generally higher than the district, they were lower than the state averages. The school's performance in STAAR Spanish assessments for 3rd and 4th grades was also mixed, with some subjects performing better than the district and others performing worse. Over the past few years, the school's statewide ranking has fluctuated, ranging from 4 stars in 2016-2017 to 2 stars in 2021-2022.

The school faces some socioeconomic challenges, with around 68-71% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in recent years. Interestingly, the nearby Bob Hope Elementary School-Baytown, a public charter school outside the district, has significantly outperformed Stephen F Austin Elementary and the district in 3rd grade STAAR Reading and Mathematics assessments. The school's inconsistent performance and subgroup disparities suggest the need for a more comprehensive and data-driven approach to improving student outcomes and addressing the unique needs of its diverse student population.

My kids have attended SFA Elementary and I have always been extremely pleased with the school/teachers. Their teachers have always been so helpful in teaching the kids to be successful and to make the best choices for their future. The office staff is always pleasant and helpful. The principal (Mrs. Smith) is awesome too! Close Quote
