Summary

Independence Elementary is a public elementary school in Lewisville, Texas, serving 824 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Lewisville Independent School District, which is ranked 309 out of 961 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating.

Independence Elementary has consistently ranked in the top 25% of Texas elementary schools, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's performance on STAAR tests is generally above the district and state averages, particularly in reading and science. For example, the school's 5th-grade students are projected to outperform the district and state in STAAR Reading and STAAR Science. However, the school struggles with the performance of Hispanic and English Language Learner (ELL) students, who rank in the bottom half of their statewide subgroups.

Compared to other high-performing elementary schools in the Lewisville ISD, such as Homestead Elementary and Castle Hills Elementary, Independence Elementary's academic performance is generally on par or slightly below. The school outperforms lower-performing schools in the district, such as Indian Creek Elementary and Camey Elementary, which have lower STAAR scores and a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students. The increasing percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Independence Elementary, coupled with the school's generally strong academic performance, suggests that the school may be effective in supporting students from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds.
