Summary

Billie Stevenson Elementary in Fate, TX, is a PK-6 school with 805 students in the highly-rated Rockwall Independent School District (Isd), serving a relatively affluent community where only about 18% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

This school stands out for its exceptional support of all students, particularly those from low-income backgrounds and African American students. In the most recent year, Billie Stevenson ranked in the 92nd percentile statewide for effectiveness with low socio-economic status students—a dramatic improvement from just two years prior. It also earned a 5-star rating for its work with African American students, ranking in the 95th percentile. Reading proficiency is a consistent strength, with rates ranging from 69.5% to 76.2% across tested grades, all well above district and state averages. However, 5th-grade science is a notable weakness, with only 31.2% of students proficient in 2024-2025, below nearby top performers like Sherry And Paul Hamm Elementary (60% proficient) and Celia Hays Elementary (44% proficient).

Billie Stevenson is on an upward trajectory, climbing from the 79th percentile statewide in 2022-2023 to the 86th percentile in 2025-2026. It significantly outperforms its nearest neighbor, Miss May Vernon Elementary in the lower-performing Royse City Independent School District (Isd), which ranks in the 61st percentile. While the school excels at bringing students to proficiency, its Gifted and Talented program ranks only in the 69th percentile, suggesting room for growth in advanced enrichment. To reach the next tier of performance—matching schools like Sherry and Paul Hamm (95th percentile) and Celia Hays (92nd percentile)—Billie Stevenson could focus on elevating its math instruction, where it trails these peers by 15-20 percentage points in some grades.
