Summary

Main Street Elementary in Taylor, TX, serves 446 students in 1st through 5th grade within the Taylor Independent School District (Isd), and is a school where over 74% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, reflecting a high-needs community. The school has a 1-star rating and ranks in the 25th percentile statewide, which is a notable improvement from its lowest point in the 2021-2022 school year (6th percentile) but still well below its peak performance in 2016-2017 (46th percentile). This persistent academic underperformance is a key differentiator from nearby schools like Thrall Elementary, which ranks in the 86th percentile and has proficiency rates nearly double those of Main Street in most subjects, despite being just 7 miles away.

Academically, Main Street Elementary consistently scores below both district and state averages in Reading and Mathematics across all grade levels. For example, only 33.73% of 3rd graders were proficient in Reading compared to the state average of 51.08%, and Math proficiency was just 24.72% versus the state's 44.33%. Mathematics is a critical area of concern, with proficiency rates roughly half the state average for 3rd and 4th grades. The school also shows inconsistent performance for student subgroups, with relative strength in serving White students (39th percentile) but significant struggles with Hispanic students (17th percentile) and Low Socio-Economic Status students (23rd percentile). A notable bright spot was a dramatic improvement in serving Special Education students in the 2024-2025 school year (56th percentile), but this was not sustained, dropping to the 17th percentile in the most recent data.

Interestingly, Main Street Elementary spends $11,055 per student, which is higher than many higher-performing schools in the area, such as Hutto Elementary ($9,612) and Benjamin Doc Kerley Elementary ($9,272), suggesting that funding alone is not the primary obstacle. The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.9:1, indicating that class size is not the main issue. Instead, the high concentration of poverty and the need for more effective, targeted instructional strategies are likely more significant factors. The school is outperformed by its in-district peer, Naomi Pasemann Elementary, which has a lower poverty rate (67%) and consistently achieves higher test scores, highlighting a tale of two schools within the same district.

What people are saying

by a parent
Thursday, April 13, 2023

Main Street Intermediate School (MSI) is pretty much the worst experience my child has ever had. If you want to hold your child every night crying in your arms then by all means enroll. Bullying is WAY out of control and nobody does anything about it other than make excuses for the bullies or (as the assistant principal stated) should learn to be stronger. My child has been choked, pushed, ganged up on, tripped while on crutches and called any and every think you can think of by the kids at this school. The Principal is a joke. It's her 1st year there and I hope her last for the sake of future students coming in. She doesn't respond to emails or calls until you get the superintendent involved. And then its a room full of staff members against you and your kid coercing your child into saying what they want to hear. That's bullying in itself. How is a 10 year old going to feel comfortable about speaking out when confronted with a room full of superiors. It's disgusting! If you schedule a phone meeting with the principal then it's again 2 or 3 people not just a one on one. The staff is unprofessional and catty as can be. Rolling their eyes when you voice concern and talking about the parents and students behind their backs. They take no responsibility for the kids behavior at this school and treat everything like its a joke or a lie and just to shrug it off. Some of the teachers are really great but some are just awful. My child's homeroom teacher literally told the whole class that Thanksgiving isn't a holiday and it's racist to celebrate it so they were not going to be doing any kind of holiday activities during that week. She tells the students that they are not aloud to ask questions about their work, to figure it out amongst themselves. Their whole work schedule is on google classroom and all their assignments. What is the point of having a teacher???? As parents, we are just beside ourselves with how this school operates and deals with student or parent concerns. It's so bad that 10 kids our of my child's class are all moving to different schools next year. Close Quote
