Summary

Pilot Point Elementary serves 561 students in grades 1-5 and is part of the Pilot Point Independent School District (Isd), located in a community where 44% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school has experienced a volatile performance history, dropping from a high of 4 stars (71st percentile) in 2020-2021 to a low of 1 star (29th percentile) in the most recent data, indicating significant challenges in maintaining consistent academic growth.

The most critical differentiator for this school is a severe and persistent underperformance in mathematics. In 5th grade, only 30% of students were proficient in math, compared to the state average of 47%, while nearby schools like Collinsville Elementary (61%) and Tommie Dobie Bothwell Elementary (67%) achieved double the proficiency rate. This creates a massive 24-point gap between the school's 5th-grade reading proficiency (55%, close to the state average) and its math performance—a "two-speed" pattern far wider than in any nearby school. The school also shows a steep decline for male students, who now rank in the 17th percentile, compared to female students at the 44th percentile.

Despite these challenges, the school has notable strengths. It ranks in the 83rd percentile for serving Gifted and Talented students, earning 4 stars, suggesting its advanced programming is a distinct asset. Additionally, on the Spanish version of the 3rd-grade reading STAAR, 54% of students were proficient—nearly double the state average of 28%—indicating that the bilingual program may be highly effective for Spanish-speaking students. The school's per-student spending ($9,943) and favorable student-teacher ratio (14.3:1) are competitive, suggesting that resource allocation is not the primary driver of its performance issues. However, the school is surrounded by wealthier districts like Prosper Independent School District (Isd) and Celina Independent School District (Isd), where free/reduced lunch rates are 10-15%, making comparisons challenging.
