Summary

Burnett Elementary is a public elementary school in Houston, Texas, serving grades PK-4 with a student population of 528. The school is part of the Pasadena Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 565 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Burnett Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past 10 years. The school's academic performance is a significant concern, as it consistently underperforms compared to the Pasadena ISD and Texas state averages on STAAR tests in reading and math. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 47.89% of 3rd graders at Burnett Elementary were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to 46.21% for Pasadena ISD and 52.02% for the state. The school's performance is particularly low in mathematics, with only 29.87% of 4th graders proficient or better in 2024-2025, compared to 43.42% for Pasadena ISD and 45.79% for the state.

While Burnett Elementary struggles academically, some of the nearby schools, such as Moore Elementary and Frazier Elementary, perform significantly better on STAAR tests and have higher SchoolDigger rankings. Additionally, the nearby Yes Prep Public Schools and International Leadership Of Texas (Iltexas) charter schools have mixed performance compared to Burnett Elementary. To address these issues, the school and district may need to implement targeted interventions and support programs to improve student learning outcomes, particularly in the areas of reading and mathematics.
