Summary

Stuart Place Elementary in Harlingen, TX, is a mid-sized school serving 578 students from Pre-K through 5th grade, located on Business Highway 83 in a suburban/industrial corridor of the city.

Stuart Place stands out from its neighbors in the Harlingen Consolidated Independent School District primarily due to its significantly lower poverty rate—about 55% of students are economically disadvantaged, compared to rates above 80% at nearby schools like Bowie Elementary (93%) and Crockett Elementary (94%). This more stable demographic profile means the school spends less per student ($9,246) than its peers, who often require more intensive interventions. Academically, Stuart Place is a solid, mid-tier performer, ranking in the 69th percentile statewide (3 stars). Its 5th-grade Reading program is a consistent bright spot, outperforming both district and state averages for four consecutive years. However, an interesting paradox emerges when comparing it to Bowie Elementary: despite having nearly double the poverty rate, Bowie consistently achieves higher overall rankings (78th percentile) and significantly outperforms Stuart Place in 4th and 5th-grade Math and Science, suggesting Stuart Place may be underperforming relative to its more affluent student body.

The school faces clear internal challenges. It consistently struggles to serve its most vulnerable students, earning only 1 or 2 stars for Special Education, low-income, and Gifted and Talented students for multiple years. Additionally, a recent and significant gap has emerged between male and female students, with boys now performing at a 73rd percentile level (4 stars) while girls have stagnated at the 64th percentile (3 stars). On a positive note, the school has shown it can implement effective change, as seen in the dramatic recovery of its White student subgroup, which jumped from the 15th percentile to the 76th percentile in just two years. For families in the area, the nearby charter school Jubilee Harlingen offers a high-performing alternative, posting exceptional early-grade reading and math scores despite serving a more disadvantaged population.
