Summary

Lomax Elementary in La Porte, TX, is a PK-5 school serving 512 students within the La Porte Independent School District (Isd), and it has earned a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for nine consecutive years, currently ranking in the 82nd percentile statewide.

Lomax stands out for its exceptional early math instruction, with 74.39% of 3rd graders proficient in math—30 points above the state average and 12.5 points above the district average. This is a significant advantage over nearby schools like La Porte Elementary (44.3% proficiency) and Heritage Elementary (73.02%). The school consistently outperforms both district and state averages in reading and math across most grade levels, and it is particularly effective for economically disadvantaged students, ranking in the 91st percentile statewide for this subgroup. However, a notable trend is a decline in 5th-grade math proficiency, which dropped from 77% in 2022-2023 to 42.31% in 2025-2026, falling below the state average for the first time. Additionally, while Lomax excels for low-income and Hispanic students, it ranks only in the 53rd percentile for Gifted and Talented students, suggesting room for improvement in enrichment programs.

Compared to its closest rival, Heritage Elementary (just 1.79 miles away), Lomax has historically been the higher-ranked school, but Heritage has recently surged to the 90th percentile, surpassing Lomax in 5th-grade math (71.15% vs. 42.31%) and 5th-grade reading (72.84% vs. 67.11%). Lomax also has the lowest poverty rate among nearby La Porte ISD elementary schools, with only 36.72% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, compared to 66.8% at College Park Elementary. An intriguing data point is that Lomax's 6th-grade math proficiency (95.83%) is dramatically higher than the district (43-51%) and state (37-38%), suggesting the strong foundation built at Lomax translates into exceptional performance in later grades.
