Summary

Lantrip Elementary is a PK-5 public school in the Houston Independent School District (Isd) serving 405 students in a densely populated area of Houston, where over 76% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. This school stands out for its exceptional ability to support students from low-income backgrounds, ranking in the 81st percentile statewide for this group in the most recent data—a feat not matched by nearby schools like Blackshear Elementary or Burnet Elementary, which serve similar communities but achieve lower results. Lantrip also shows remarkable strength with its Gifted and Talented students, who now rank in the 93rd percentile, a dramatic improvement from just a few years ago.

However, Lantrip’s overall performance has been volatile, swinging from the 80th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 29th percentile in 2024-2025, before rebounding to the 62nd percentile in the latest data. This pattern is unique compared to more stable nearby schools like Henderson J Elementary (82nd percentile) and Cage Elementary (74th percentile), which consistently outperform Lantrip overall. The 2024-2025 dip saw sharp declines in subjects like 4th-grade math and 5th-grade science, but the strong rebound suggests it was a temporary setback rather than a systemic issue.

Lantrip’s math program shows a split: 5th-grade math proficiency (59.57%) exceeds district and state averages, but 3rd and 4th-grade math lag behind. The school also spends less per student ($9,559) than many peers, yet achieves better outcomes than higher-spending schools like Tijerina Elementary ($11,865), indicating efficient resource use. For parents, Lantrip offers a school that excels with specific student groups and has shown it can bounce back from challenges, though its overall ranking is less consistent than nearby options.
