Summary

Ella Schorlemmer Elementary is a mid-sized public school in Victoria, TX, serving 459 students from Pre-K through 5th grade within the Victoria Independent School District (Isd).

Schorlemmer has undergone a remarkable turnaround over the past decade, rising from low performance to become one of the top schools in its district. It now ranks in the 72nd percentile statewide, a significant achievement compared to nearby district schools like Hopkins Elementary (17th percentile) and Shields Elementary (1st percentile). The school consistently outperforms the Victoria ISD average in both Reading and Math across all grade levels. For example, 5th-grade Reading proficiency reached 70.27% compared to the district average of 54.05%. The school also shows exceptional support for English Language Learners, earning a perfect 5-star rating for this subgroup in a recent year. Its closest competitor is Vickers Elementary, located just over a mile away, which has a similar overall ranking but a notably stronger math program—5th-grade Math proficiency at Vickers was 75.29% versus Schorlemmer's 48.65%.

Despite its overall success, Schorlemmer has a clear area for improvement: support for Special Education students, who have consistently ranked in the 20th-40th percentile in recent years. Additionally, while the school is a standout within Victoria ISD, it is still outperformed by Nursery Elementary in the nearby Nursery Independent School District (Isd), which ranks in the 90th percentile and achieves test scores 10-20 percentage points higher in most subjects. This suggests that while Schorlemmer offers a strong academic environment, families seeking the highest regional performance may want to explore options in Nursery ISD.
