Summary

Lamar Elementary is a public elementary school located in Greenville, Texas, serving grades K-4 with a student population of 509. The school is part of the Greenville Independent School District, which is ranked 891 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lamar Elementary has a long history of declining performance, with its statewide ranking dropping from 511 out of 4,320 Texas elementary schools in 2014-2015 to 3,422 out of 4,651 in 2024-2025, a rating of 1 out of 5 SchoolDigger stars. The school consistently underperforms compared to the district and the state in STAAR test scores across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 40.45% of 3rd-grade students at Lamar Elementary were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to 36.07% for the district and 52.02% for the state. The school also struggles to support the academic achievement of various student subgroups, with many subgroups ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools.

Despite the challenges faced by Lamar Elementary, the school's performance for students in the Gifted and Talented program is relatively stronger, with a ranking in the middle quartile of Texas elementary schools. This suggests that the school may have the capacity to improve academic outcomes for all students if the right strategies and resources are implemented. Interestingly, Lamar Elementary's performance is significantly lower than that of nearby schools within the Greenville Independent School District, such as Bowie Elementary and Carver Elementary, which have higher STAAR test scores and better overall rankings.
