Summary

Lamar Elementary is a K-4 school in Greenville, TX, serving 508 students within the Greenville Independent School District (Isd), a district that ranks in the 9th percentile statewide and where over 70% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

While Lamar Elementary has historically been a low-performing school, ranking in the 25th percentile (1 star) for the 2025-2026 school year, it is generally the highest-performing school within its immediate district. It outperforms nearby Crockett Elementary (12th percentile) and Carver Elementary (5th percentile), though it has recently been surpassed by Bowie Elementary (35th percentile), located just over a mile away. A dramatic decline over the past decade—from the 76th percentile in 2015-2016 to the 17th percentile by 2021-2022—has left the school struggling to recover. The contrast with nearby districts is stark: Kathryn Griffis Elementary in the Caddo Mills Independent School District (Isd), just 9.5 miles away, ranks in the 83rd percentile, with 4th-grade math proficiency nearly double that of Lamar.

Despite these challenges, there are notable bright spots and areas of concern. Lamar has shown exceptional effectiveness with its Special Education students, ranking in the 96th percentile in 2023-2024, though this performance has been inconsistent. Fourth-grade reading is a relative strength, with 42.55% of students proficient, close to the state average. However, the school is failing its Hispanic students, who ranked in the 7th percentile in the most recent data, and support for low-income students has declined sharply. Resource allocation also presents a puzzle: Lamar spent $8,744 per student in 2020-2021, while lower-performing Crockett Elementary spent $15,556, suggesting that how money is spent matters more than the amount.
