Summary

Metzler Elementary is a public elementary school located in Klein, Texas, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 894 students. It is part of the Klein Independent School District, which is ranked 211 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. Metzler Elementary has maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years, indicating consistent academic performance.

Metzler Elementary consistently outperforms the state average in STAAR Reading, Mathematics, and Science assessments across grades 3-5. In 2024-2025, Metzler's 3rd-grade reading proficiency rate is 57.55%, compared to the state average of 52.02%, and its 4th-grade reading proficiency is 68.79%, higher than the state's 53.73%. Metzler's 5th-grade science proficiency rate of 34.21% in 2024-2025 is also significantly higher than the state's 29.57%. However, the school's Asian and English Language Learner (ELL) students perform relatively lower, ranking in the bottom 50% of their respective statewide subgroups.

Metzler's performance is generally stronger than the nearby Bernshausen Elementary and Mueller Elementary within the Klein ISD. However, the high-performing Tomball Independent School District schools, like Creekside Forest Elementary and Timber Creek Elementary, outperform Metzler across multiple academic measures. Metzler's moderate socioeconomic status, as indicated by its free/reduced-price lunch rates, may contribute to its academic performance, as research suggests that socioeconomic factors can significantly impact student outcomes.
