Summary

Isaacs Elementary is a public elementary school in Houston, Texas, serving 274 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Houston Independent School District, which is ranked 505 out of 961 districts in the state.

Isaacs Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with its performance on state assessments significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 46.43% of 3rd-grade students at Isaacs Elementary were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to 48.18% for the district and 52.02% for the state. The school's performance is particularly low in STAAR Mathematics and STAAR Science, with proficiency rates often less than half the district and state averages. Isaacs Elementary also has a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 95.62% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Scroggins Elementary, Eliot Elementary, and Kashmere Gardens Elementary, Isaacs Elementary performs significantly worse, with lower academic performance and less favorable student-to-teacher ratios. The school's inability to improve its outcomes despite increased per-student spending and a relatively low student-to-teacher ratio suggests that there may be deeper systemic issues that need to be addressed.
