Summary

Judge James C Adolphus Elementary in Richmond, TX, is a high-performing school serving 1,025 students in grades PK through 5 as part of the highly-rated Lamar Consolidated Independent School District, where about 32% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

This school consistently ranks among the top 8% of all Texas elementary schools, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for nine consecutive years. Its STAAR test scores in reading and math are typically 10 to 20 percentage points above district and state averages. For example, in 4th grade reading, 79.63% of students were proficient compared to 53.04% statewide. The school is especially notable for its exceptional support of English Language Learner (ELL) students, ranking in the 97th percentile statewide for this subgroup. While the school excels overall, 5th grade science scores, though above average, are a relative weakness, and its state ranking has seen a slight dip from the 95th to the 92nd percentile in recent years.

When comparing nearby schools, Adolphus Elementary significantly outperforms most of its neighbors in the Fort Bend Independent School District (Isd), such as James Patterson Elementary and Juan Seguin Elementary, which have lower test scores and star ratings. However, Malala Yousafzai Elementary in Fort Bend ISD is a direct, high-performing competitor, ranking in the 96th percentile and often matching or exceeding Adolphus in subjects like 3rd grade reading and 5th grade math. This makes Malala Yousafzai the top academic benchmark in the immediate area, despite being in a lower-ranked district overall.
