Summary

Robert King Elementary is a public elementary school in Katy, Texas, serving 967 students in grades PK-5. It is part of the Katy Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 172 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating.

While Robert King Elementary has seen a decline in its statewide ranking in recent years, dropping from 1237 out of 4578 Texas elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 2941 out of 4651 in 2024-2025, it maintains a 2-star rating. The school's performance on STAAR tests is generally below the Katy ISD and Texas state averages, particularly in mathematics and science. For example, in 2024-2025, only 29.32% of 3rd graders were proficient in STAAR Mathematics, compared to 58.01% for Katy ISD and 44.88% for Texas. The school also has a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 72.7% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, significantly higher than the district and state averages.

Interestingly, the nearby Bethke Elementary, Zelma Hutsell Elementary, and West Memorial Elementary generally outperform Robert King Elementary on STAAR assessments and have higher statewide rankings. However, some of these schools also have higher percentages of economically disadvantaged students, suggesting that Robert King Elementary may be serving a more challenging student population. Despite these challenges, the school's higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio suggest that there may be opportunities to implement targeted strategies and interventions to improve student outcomes.
