Summary

Keyes Elementary in Irving, TX, is a PK-5 public school in the Irving Independent School District (Isd) serving 691 students in a high-poverty area, where over 91% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school has historically ranked in the bottom 30% of Texas elementary schools, currently sitting at the 28th percentile, but it shows a notable strength in English-language math instruction, with 3rd and 4th graders scoring significantly higher than the district average—43.4% vs. 27.95% for 3rd grade and 54.79% vs. 33.19% for 4th grade—outperforming nearby schools like Lee Elementary, Lively Elementary, and Haley J Elementary in these areas.

However, Keyes faces a severe challenge with its Spanish-language assessment program, recording 0% proficiency in 5th Grade Reading and Math (Spanish) and only 7.69% in 4th Grade Math (Spanish)—dramatically lower than nearby schools like Brandenburg Elementary, Farine Elementary, and Gilbert F M Elementary, which all achieved proficiency rates above 25% in similar tests. Additionally, support for Special Education students has collapsed, with the school's rank dropping from the 27th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 3rd percentile in 2025-2026, making it the worst-performing subgroup at the school. In contrast, Keyes is relatively effective at serving its low socio-economic status (SES) students, ranking in the 39th percentile for this group, which is better than its overall rank.

Comparing Keyes to Brandenburg Elementary, just 1.56 miles away, reveals that high poverty is not an insurmountable barrier—Brandenburg ranks in the 61st percentile (3 stars) versus Keyes' 28th percentile (1 star), with English-language test scores 10-20 percentage points higher in nearly every grade and subject. Keyes' per-student spending ($10,683) and student-teacher ratio (16:1) are typical for the area, suggesting performance issues stem from how resources are used, particularly in bilingual and Special Education programs. The school also struggles with its Gifted and Talented program, ranking in the 11th percentile, indicating a need for more rigorous instruction for advanced learners.
