N A Howry Steam Academy

Public Grades PK, KG-5
Summary

N A Howry Steam Academy is an elementary school in Lake Worth, Texas, serving 324 students in grades 1-5. The school is part of the Lake Worth Independent School District, which is ranked 940 out of 961 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Unfortunately, N A Howry Steam Academy has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Texas elementary schools over the past 5 years.

Academically, the school underperforms compared to the state and its local district on STAAR assessments in reading, math, and science. For example, in 2024-2025, only 34.78% of 3rd graders were proficient in reading, compared to 52.02% statewide. The school's performance is particularly low in 5th grade math (18.75% proficient) and science (6.25% proficient). Despite spending $13,900 per student, which is higher than the state average, the school has a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 11.9.

While N A Howry Steam Academy is the lowest-performing school in its district, some nearby schools in other districts, such as Remington Point Elementary and Castleberry Elementary, demonstrate higher academic achievement, despite serving similar student populations. This suggests that factors beyond just student demographics, such as school leadership, instructional practices, and resource allocation, may be contributing to the differences in performance. Addressing the school's systemic challenges and implementing more effective, evidence-based practices could be key to driving meaningful improvements in student achievement at N A Howry Steam Academy.
