Summary

Heritage Elementary is a PK-5 school in Deer Park, TX, serving 667 students as part of the La Porte Independent School District (Isd), and it has recently staged a remarkable comeback, jumping from the 62nd percentile in 2024-2025 to the 90th percentile in 2025-2026.

This "V-shaped" recovery is the school's most defining feature. After reaching a peak in the 92nd percentile in 2015-2016, Heritage experienced a significant decline before its dramatic resurgence. This pattern is unique among nearby schools, which have much flatter rank histories. For example, Lomax Elementary improved by only 9 percentile points over the same period. The recovery is especially pronounced for specific student groups: Heritage now ranks in the 99th percentile for both English Language Learner (ELL) and Gifted and Talented students, and in the 95th percentile for Hispanic and low-income students. This level of targeted success is unmatched by any nearby comparison school, including San Jacinto Elementary (61st percentile) and Carpenter Elementary (38th percentile).

Heritage also stands out for its exceptional math performance, particularly in higher grades. In 2025-2026, 71.15% of 5th graders and 100% of 6th graders were proficient in math, far exceeding district and state averages. While Deer Park Elementary also shows strong 6th-grade math scores, Heritage's 5th-grade math proficiency is the highest among all nearby schools. The school's ability to serve its most vulnerable populations is a powerful indicator of an effective and equitable environment. For families in the Deer Park area, Heritage offers a higher-performing option than many local Deer Park Independent School District (Isd) schools, making it a compelling choice for those seeking a school that excels across the board.
