Summary

Robinson Elementary in Houston, TX, is a PK-5 school in the Houston Independent School District (Isd) serving 401 students in a high-poverty area, where 100% of students are eligible for free or reduced lunch. This school is on a remarkable upward trajectory, climbing from the 5th percentile statewide in 2018-2019 to the 45th percentile in 2025-2026, a more significant positive shift than any nearby school. Its standout achievement is exceptional support for Special Education students, who ranked in the 98th percentile in 2023-2024—a massive leap from the 5th percentile just two years prior, placing Robinson among the top 2% of Texas elementary schools for this subgroup.

Robinson excels in early literacy, with 3rd graders achieving a 69.7% proficiency rate in Reading, the highest among nearby schools like Woodland Acres Elementary (56.82%) and well above district and state averages. However, performance drops in 4th and 5th grades, with Reading proficiency falling to 33.33% and 39.53%, respectively, suggesting a need to sustain gains as texts become more complex. The school also performs strongly for African American students, ranking in the 61st percentile, outpacing its overall rank. In contrast, nearby Woodland Acres Elementary (84th percentile) and Tice Elementary (71st percentile) in Galena Park Independent School District (Isd) remain the area's top performers, especially in math, where Robinson's 5th-grade score (37.21%) lags behind Woodland Acres (75.41%).

Science is a consistent challenge, with Robinson's 5th-grade proficiency at just 12.07%, mirroring a systemic issue across the area, though it slightly outperforms some peers like The Rhodes School - Northshore Campus (0%). Nearby Idea Lake Houston Academy shows a similar upward trend to the 50th percentile but struggles in math (32-41% proficient), while Robinson offers more balanced, albeit lower, performance. Overall, Robinson's dramatic turnaround and exceptional Special Education results make it a school to watch, though it must address upper-grade declines and close the gap with top-tier Galena Park ISD schools.
