Summary

Lockhart Elementary is a PK-5 public school in Houston, TX, serving 306 students within the Houston Independent School District (Isd), where over 93% of students come from a high-poverty community. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom third of Texas elementary schools, currently holding a 1-star rating at the 20th percentile, though it shows some positive trends in math and a notable strength in 4th-grade reading.

Compared to nearby schools, Lockhart is not the lowest-performing, as it consistently outperforms Foster Elementary (6th percentile) and Blackshear Elementary (10th percentile). However, it is dramatically overshadowed by high-performing schools within a 2-mile radius, such as Arabic Immersion Magnet School (85th percentile), Macgregor Elementary (76th percentile), and Thompson Elementary (74th percentile). This creates a stark contrast in the same neighborhood, highlighting how school choice and specialized programs can create unequal educational landscapes. Lockhart spends $10,070 per student, which is less than some lower-performing nearby schools like Blackshear ($13,409) and Foster ($11,839), while high-performing Macgregor spends only $9,157, suggesting challenges are tied more to socioeconomic factors and instructional effectiveness than funding alone.

Lockhart shows a positive upward trend in math over the last three years, with 5th-grade math proficiency rising from 28% to 39.62%, though scores remain below district and state averages. A critical weakness persists in 5th-grade science, where only 13.21% of students were proficient in 2024-2025, compared to 24.95% for the district. The school's ability to serve special education students is highly volatile, swinging from a 70th percentile ranking in 2023-2024 to a 4th percentile ranking the following year, indicating inconsistent programming. On a positive note, African American students showed improvement, with the school's ranking for this group rising from the 35th percentile to the 62nd percentile in 2023-2024, suggesting capacity to serve this demographic effectively.
