Summary

Huntsville Elementary is a PK-5 public school in Huntsville, TX, serving 670 students within the Huntsville Independent School District (Isd), a district that ranks in the bottom 12% of Texas.

While the school has a 1-star rating and ranks in the 13th percentile statewide, it is actually the highest-ranked elementary school in its own district, outperforming nearby schools like Scott Johnson Elementary (7th percentile) and Samuel Houston Elementary (9th percentile). However, a dramatic contrast exists just 14 miles away in the New Waverly Independent School District (Isd), where New Waverly Intermediate ranks in the 67th percentile and boasts 4th-grade math proficiency rates more than double those at Huntsville Elementary. The school also faces significant resource challenges, spending less per student ($8,208) than most nearby schools, while its student-teacher ratio has spiked to 21:1—a 50% increase from the previous year.

Huntsville Elementary has experienced notable volatility in its specialized programs. Its Gifted and Talented program once ranked 1st out of over 3,100 Texas schools in 2019, but has since dropped to the 52nd percentile. Similarly, support for Special Education students has fluctuated wildly, falling from the 59th percentile to the 9th percentile in just two years. With over 80% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, the school is struggling to provide consistent support for its highest-need populations, as both "At Risk" and low-income student subgroups now rank in the bottom 10% of the state.
