Summary

Glen Oaks Elementary is a K-5 school in the McKinney Independent School District (Isd) serving 478 students in a relatively affluent area of McKinney, TX, where only 9% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. This school has a strong legacy of high performance, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for nine consecutive years, though it recently dipped to a 4-star rating in the 2025-2026 school year, dropping from the 94th to the 85th percentile statewide. Despite this shift, Glen Oaks remains a standout choice for families, particularly for its exceptional 4th-grade math program, where 83.15% of students were proficient—a remarkable 32 percentage points higher than the district average and 34 points above the state average, outperforming nearby high-achieving schools like Earl & Lottie Wolford Elementary (70%) and Comstock Elementary (78.23%).

However, parents should note a "tale of two grades" in math: while 4th grade excels, 5th-grade math proficiency (47.78%) falls below the district average (48.48%), a stark contrast to nearby Roy Lee Walker Elementary, where 5th-grade math is their strongest subject at 90.41%. This suggests a potential curriculum or instructional gap between grades at Glen Oaks. On a positive note, 5th-grade Science is a consistent strength, with 49.45% of students proficient in 2024-2025, far exceeding the district (32.31%) and state (29.57%) averages, and outperforming peers like Roy Lee Walker Elementary (36%) and Gary And Bobbye Jack Minshew Elementary (37.8%).

Glen Oaks is surrounded by a cluster of strong elementary schools, but it significantly outperforms its closest neighbor, Minshew Elementary (0.87 miles away), which has a much higher poverty rate (31.41%) and a lower overall rank. While the school's overall performance remains strong, subgroup data shows volatility, such as a dramatic drop in effectiveness for Asian students from the 73rd to the 20th percentile over three years, and inconsistent support for low socio-economic status and African American students year-over-year. This suggests that while Glen Oaks is a solid choice for many families, its support systems for specific groups may not be as stable as its overall reputation implies.
