Summary

George W Bush Elementary in St. Paul, TX, is a high-performing school serving 924 students in grades PK through 4 within the highly-ranked Wylie Independent School District (Isd). This school has shown remarkable growth, climbing from the 91st percentile statewide in 2019 to the 99th percentile in the 2025-2026 school year, placing it among the top 68 elementary schools in Texas. With a favorable student-to-teacher ratio of 14.9, the school has achieved a consistent 5-star rating from SchoolDigger, demonstrating a strong commitment to academic excellence.

What truly sets George W Bush Elementary apart is its exceptional performance with specific student groups. The school ranks 7th out of 2,406 schools statewide for its effectiveness with African American students, placing it in the 100th percentile—a remarkable achievement that has been sustained for three consecutive years. Additionally, the school excels in supporting Special Education students, ranking 67th out of 4,301 schools (98th percentile). The school's bilingual program also stands out, with 71.43% of 4th graders achieving proficiency on the Spanish STAAR Reading test, significantly outperforming the district average of 57.14% and the state average of 37.14%. While nearby Tibbals Elementary remains a consistent top-50 school, George W Bush has closed the gap considerably, achieving near-identical results despite serving a larger student body with a slightly higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students.

The school's math program has seen impressive improvement, with 4th-grade math proficiency soaring from 68% in 2022-2023 to 85.71% in 2025-2026, outpacing both the district (81.31%) and state (49.28%). This 17.71 percentage point increase over three years indicates a targeted and successful intervention in math instruction. However, the school has experienced a notable decline in performance for Multi-racial students, dropping from the 91st percentile in 2023-2024 to the 67th percentile in 2025-2026—the only subgroup not performing in the top quartile. This represents an area for potential focus to ensure all student groups continue to thrive at this otherwise outstanding school.

Open Quote The administration is terrible. Principal is condescending and useless. She only cares about her job, and not the children. Such a shame.
Teachers are wonderful!! But sadly, they have no support which makes their job harder! Close Quote
