Summary

Genoa Elementary is a public elementary school in Houston, Texas, serving 533 students in grades PK-4. The school is part of the Pasadena Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 565 out of 961 districts in the state.

Genoa Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools, with a 1-star or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past 10 years. The school underperforms compared to the Pasadena ISD and Texas state averages on STAAR assessments in reading and math. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 19.23% of 3rd graders and 26.73% of 4th graders at Genoa Elementary were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to 46.21% and 49.21% for Pasadena ISD, and 52.02% and 53.73% for the state of Texas. Similar gaps are seen in STAAR Math.

Despite spending more per student ($11,913 in 2020-2021) and having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.6 in 2023-2024, Genoa Elementary's academic performance remains a concern. The nearby Meador Elementary, Young Elementary, and other schools in the Pasadena ISD generally perform better on STAAR assessments and have higher SchoolDigger rankings. This suggests that Genoa Elementary may be facing systemic challenges that need to be addressed through targeted interventions and support to improve the academic outcomes for its students.
