Summary

Banuelos Elementary is a public elementary school in Baytown, Texas, serving 746 students in grades PK-5. It is part of the Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District, which is ranked 701 out of 961 school districts in the state.

Banuelos Elementary has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past decade, dropping from 1636 out of 4286 Texas elementary schools in 2015-2016 to its current rank of 3074 out of 4651 in 2024-2025. The school consistently underperforms the district and state in STAAR test scores, particularly in mathematics, where proficiency rates range from 23.08% to 42.4%, significantly below the district and state averages. Banuelos Elementary also struggles with STAAR Spanish test scores, with proficiency rates well below the district and state levels.

While Banuelos Elementary spends more per student compared to the district average, its performance remains below that of nearby schools within the Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District, such as Stephen F. Austin Elementary, Crockett Elementary, and Victoria Walker Elementary, which have higher STAAR test scores and better statewide rankings. Addressing the challenges faced by Banuelos Elementary will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to improve the educational outcomes for its students.
