Summary:
In zip code 78013, there is one elementary school, Comfort Elementary, serving grades PK through 5 in the Comfort, Texas area, which is part of the Comfort Independent School District (Isd).
Comfort Elementary has 472 students and shows a clear split between reading and math performance. In the 2025-2026 school year, 4th graders achieved a 60% proficiency rate in reading, which is 7 points above the state average, making it a notable bright spot. However, math scores are a significant concern, with 3rd graders at just 20% proficiency, 4th graders at 41.43%, and 5th graders at 28.05%—all well below state averages. The school's overall state ranking dropped sharply from the 41st percentile (2 stars) in 2024-2025 to the 26th percentile (1 star) in 2025-2026, ranking 3,427 out of 4,627 Texas schools. With 61.86% of students eligible for free or reduced lunch and per-student spending at $8,933 (below the state average), the school faces economic challenges that add context to its performance.
Key takeaways include a systemic issue in math instruction across all grades, while 5th grade science was a relative strength in 2024-2025, scoring above the state average. The school's student-teacher ratio of 14.3:1 is slightly better than the state average. The volatile ranking history—from the 11th percentile to the 41st and back down to the 26th—suggests instability that parents should monitor closely, particularly the sharp decline in 3rd grade reading and math scores that drove the recent drop.
