Summary

R Steve Folsom Elementary is a well-regarded public school in Prosper, TX, serving 611 students from Pre-K through 5th grade within the highly-ranked Prosper Independent School District (Isd).

Folsom consistently performs above the state average, but it operates in a district filled with elite schools. For example, nearby Jim Spradley Elementary and Lilyana Elementary both earn higher state rankings and 5-star ratings. Folsom’s test scores often lag behind the district average, particularly in 4th-grade math and 5th-grade science. However, the school’s biggest advantage is its low student-to-teacher ratio of 11.4:1, which is the smallest among all nearby schools. For context, Lilyana Elementary has a ratio of 15.7:1, and Mooneyham Elementary has 15.9:1. This means your child is likely to receive more individualized attention at Folsom.

Folsom shows notable strengths in supporting certain student groups, ranking in the top 10% of the state for African American and Special Education students. However, performance for Asian and English Language Learner students is significantly lower. The school also faces challenges with a recurring "math dip" between 3rd and 4th grade and consistently low science scores—only 32.82% of 5th graders were proficient in science recently, compared to 59.14% at Scott Elementary. While Folsom is a solid, above-average school, parents should weigh its smaller class sizes against the higher test scores and rankings of several nearby 5-star options.
