Summary

Viola Gilmore Randle Elementary is a mid-sized school in Fulshear, TX, serving 809 students in grades PK through 5 as part of the Lamar Consolidated Independent School District, a well-regarded district ranked in the top 21% of Texas.

Randle Elementary stands out for its exceptional 5th-grade science performance, with a 53.85% proficiency rate that is nearly 15 percentage points higher than the next best LCISD school, Huggins Elementary, and well above the district average of 38.62%. This suggests a particularly strong science curriculum or teacher at that grade level. The school also shows remarkable effectiveness for specific student groups, with African American students ranking in the 85th percentile statewide and English Language Learners in the 84th percentile. However, the school has a higher student-to-teacher ratio (20.9:1) than nearby schools like Tamarron Elementary (19.6:1) and significantly higher than Stanley C Stanley Elementary in Katy Independent School District (Isd) (13.3:1), which may impact individualized attention.

A notable area of concern is 3rd-grade math, where proficiency dropped from 62.28% in 2024-2025 to 48.65% in 2025-2026, the lowest among LCISD peers and far below the 92.11% at Stanley C Stanley Elementary. This decline may indicate a specific challenge with the current 3rd-grade cohort or a change in instruction. Overall, Randle Elementary is a solid school with a clear strength in science and strong support for diverse learners, but parents should be aware of larger class sizes and the math dip when comparing to high-performing neighboring schools in Katy ISD.
