Summary

The Summit Leadership Academy is a small elementary school in Keene, TX, serving 220 students in grades 3-5 as part of the Keene Independent School District (Isd), which is rated as a 3-star district.

The school faces significant challenges, particularly in mathematics, where proficiency has dropped sharply. For example, 4th-grade math proficiency fell from 49% to 27% over two years, now 22 points below the state average. This decline is especially concerning given the school’s low student-to-teacher ratio of 14:1, which is better than nearby schools like A G Elder Elementary (17.7:1) and Keene Elementary (18:1). Despite this potential advantage, math scores have not improved, suggesting issues with curriculum or instructional strategies. Additionally, a widening gender achievement gap has emerged, with male students ranking in the 24th percentile statewide while female students rank in the 50th percentile. The school’s Gifted and Talented program also underperforms, ranking in the 11th percentile. On a positive note, 5th-grade science is a consistent strength, with proficiency 8 points above the state average in 2024-2025.

Compared to nearby districts, Summit’s struggles are more pronounced. For instance, Joshua Independent School District (Isd) is a 4-star district, and its schools like Plum Creek Elementary and H D Staples Elementary consistently rank in the 70th-90th percentiles. Even schools in lower-performing districts, such as Alvarado El-South in the Alvarado Independent School District (Isd), show higher 5th-grade math scores (60%) than Summit (25%). The school also serves a high-needs population, with 77% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, up from 65% the prior year. This combination of rising economic need, declining math performance, and internal achievement gaps has contributed to the school’s overall ranking dropping from the 57th percentile to the 36th percentile over four years.
