Summary

Heritage Elementary is a PK-5 school in Keller, TX, serving 529 students within the highly-rated Keller Independent School District (Isd), but it has experienced a significant and concerning downward trend in academic performance over the past decade.

Heritage Elementary now ranks in the 27th percentile statewide, a steep drop from its 64th-percentile ranking in 2016-2017. This decline is evident across nearly all subjects. For example, only 37.5% of 4th graders were proficient in Reading, compared to the district average of 60.12%, and just 26.67% were proficient in Math versus 51.44% district-wide. The school’s performance is particularly stark when compared to nearby schools like Bette Perot Elementary and Park Glen Elementary, both 4-star schools ranking in the 87th-89th percentile, where test scores are often double Heritage’s. A critical area of concern is 5th-grade Science, where only 8% of students were proficient, compared to the district average of 35.9%.

While the school faces challenges, including a high percentage of students eligible for free/reduced lunch (53.31%), its struggles are not solely due to a lack of funding, as its per-student spending is in line with higher-performing peers. The school shows relative strength in serving English Language Learner students, who ranked in the 59th percentile, but it is failing its economically disadvantaged and multi-racial student populations. This data suggests a need for a comprehensive intervention strategy, with a particular focus on science education and support for these specific student groups.
