Summary

Adriane Mathews Gray Elementary is a PK-5 school in Richmond, TX, serving 618 students within the Lamar Consolidated Independent School District, a district that ranks in the top 21% of Texas. After a volatile few years, the school has made a dramatic rebound, jumping from the 47th percentile in 2024-2025 to the 71st percentile in 2025-2026, earning a 4-star rating. This turnaround is especially notable because the school is highly effective with specific groups of students: it ranks in the 93rd percentile statewide for its Gifted and Talented program and in the 82nd percentile for supporting students from low socio-economic backgrounds, showing a strong commitment to helping all learners succeed.

One of the most striking improvements has been in 5th grade, where scores had been alarmingly low in 2024-2025—especially in Math (33.73% proficient) and Science (9.64% proficient). By 2025-2026, Reading and Math scores both soared to 65.71% proficient, suggesting targeted interventions worked well. However, Science remains a persistent weakness, with only 9.64% of 5th graders proficient, far below the district average of 38.62%. The school also shows a gender gap: while female students rank in the 77th percentile, male students lag at the 63rd percentile, indicating an area for continued focus.

Compared to nearby schools, Gray Elementary stands out for its recent improvement. While Taylor Ray Elementary and Travis Elementary saw declines or stagnation, Gray’s rebound is significant. It still trails the steady, high-performing Cora Thomas Elementary (79th-82nd percentile) in consistency, but it far outperforms struggling peers like Travis Elementary in every subject. For parents, Gray Elementary offers a school with strong potential, a proven ability to turn around challenges, and exceptional support for gifted and economically disadvantaged students—though Science instruction remains a key area to watch.
