Summary

Light Farms Elementary in Celina, TX, is a high-performing PK-5 school serving 1,058 students as part of the top-rated Prosper Independent School District (Isd), consistently ranking in the top 10% of Texas elementary schools. This school stands out for its exceptional support of all students, particularly those who are economically disadvantaged, ranking in the 97th percentile statewide for this group in 2024-2025—a remarkable achievement that far exceeds nearby schools like Judy Rucker Elementary and Tommie Dobie Bothwell Elementary. Light Farms also excels with English Language Learners, ranking in the 94th percentile, and has shown dramatic improvement for Special Education students, jumping from the 67th to the 94th percentile in just two years.

While Light Farms is a top-tier school, it faces healthy competition from its closest neighbor, Ralph And Mary Lynn Boyer Elementary, which is less than a mile away and holds a slightly higher overall ranking (95th percentile). Boyer outperforms Light Farms in 4th and 5th grade math and 5th grade reading, creating a dynamic where both schools push each other to excel. However, Light Farms has a lower free/reduced lunch rate (2.84% vs. 5.24%) and a slightly higher student-teacher ratio (15.5 vs. 16.6), suggesting different resource allocation models. Across the district, 5th grade science is a relative weak point for all Prosper ISD schools, with Light Farms scoring 46.89% proficient in 2024-2025—above the state average but below Lilyana Elementary (54.72%) and Betty Jackson Elementary (45.56%).

The data also reveals a stark contrast between Prosper ISD and neighboring Celina Independent School District (Isd) schools. Light Farms consistently scores 20-30 percentage points higher on STAAR tests than Celina ISD schools like Marcy B Lykins Elementary and O'Dell Elementary. For example, in 5th grade math, Light Farms scored 66.07% proficient compared to Lykins' 30.61%. Additionally, Light Farms has shown a remarkable turnaround for its at-risk students, with the most recent data indicating a massive rebound to the 97th percentile for low socioeconomic status students after a dip in previous years. This suggests the school has implemented highly effective interventions to support its most vulnerable learners, making it a standout choice for families seeking a school that prioritizes equity and excellence.
