Summary

Jarrell Elementary in Jarrell, TX, serves 719 students from Pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade in the Jarrell Independent School District (Isd), a district ranked in the bottom 13% of Texas, with about 64% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. The school has faced significant challenges, with overall state percentile rankings declining over the past decade to the 20th-21st percentile range for the 2025-2026 school year, placing it well below the state average in core subjects. However, a standout bright spot is 4th-grade math, where 45.19% of students were proficient in 2025-2026—dramatically higher than the district average of 30.5% and far outperforming in-district peers like Double Creek Elementary (22.83%) and Igo Elementary (25.45%). This consistent success over three years suggests a highly effective program or teacher at that grade level that could be replicated schoolwide.

In contrast, 5th-grade science is a notable weakness, with only 12.9% of students proficient in 2024-2025, below the district average of 14.65% and less than half the state average of 29.57%. The school also struggles with specific student groups, particularly special education students, who ranked in the bottom 9% of the state. The gap between Jarrell and nearby schools in the Georgetown Independent School District (Isd) is stark—for example, Jo Ann Ford Elementary (91st percentile) achieved 73.08% proficiency in 5th-grade reading compared to Jarrell's 49.5%, reflecting different district-level contexts.

Despite these challenges, Jarrell has some promising areas. Its Spanish-language program is a relative strength, with Spanish-proficient 3rd graders scoring 37.5% in reading, outperforming the district (25.93%) and state (28.3%). Additionally, the school performs relatively better for its low-income students (27th percentile) than for its overall student body (21st percentile), indicating that while poverty is a major factor, the school is not failing these students. The key takeaway is that Jarrell has pockets of excellence—like 4th-grade math and the Spanish program—that prove improvement is possible, but scaling these successes across all grades and subjects remains the primary challenge to reversing its long-term downward trend.

What people are saying

by a parent
Wednesday, April 27, 2016

I can only speak for my experience with the third grade teachers. I would not recommend the third grade here unless you like no parent communication, never knowing when tests are or what is being studied in class. After I complained about the lack of communication, the teachers began emailing me their lesson plans for the week. I also spoke with the principal who said parents have not complained about communication so there was no need to change anything. So if parents are okay with no communication he doesn't feel the need to create some form of communication about what is happening in the classroom. I have heard good things about other teachers there, so maybe this is just this one set of teachers. However, at the elementary level you would think there would be some type of parent newsletter, online teacher blog or some form of communication to let parents know how to help their children at home.
