Summary

Robert Driscoll Junior Stem Academy is an elementary school in Robstown, TX, serving 676 students in pre-kindergarten through 5th grade, and is part of the Robstown Independent School District (Isd), where about 90% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

This school has shown a remarkable recent improvement, jumping from the 3rd percentile statewide in the 2024-2025 school year to the 13th percentile in 2025-2026—its highest ranking in over a decade. In that most recent year, Robert Driscoll outperformed its own district average in every tested subject and grade level, a reversal from previous years. For example, 3rd-grade reading proficiency reached 45.12% compared to the district's 32.93%. However, the school's "STEM Academy" label creates an expectation of strength in math and science, yet 5th-grade science proficiency was just 4.08% in 2024-2025, far below the state average of 29.57%. The school also shows a relative strength with English Language Learner students, who ranked in the 34th percentile statewide in 2024-2025, significantly higher than the school's overall rank that year.

When compared to nearby schools in higher-performing districts, the contrast is stark. For instance, Petronila Elementary in the Bishop Consolidated Independent School District boasts 5th-grade reading proficiency of 95% and 4th-grade math proficiency of 100%, with a free/reduced lunch rate of 67%. Similarly, schools in the Calallen Independent School District (Isd) consistently perform well above state averages. While Robert Driscoll's recent upward trend is encouraging, it remains in the bottom 13% of Texas elementary schools, and sustaining this momentum—especially in math and science—will be critical for closing the gap with its higher-performing neighbors.
