Best Public Schools in Hockley, TX


Summary:

The city of Hockley, Texas is home to two elementary schools, Evelyn Turlington Elementary and Roberts Road Elementary, both part of the Waller Independent School District (ISD). While the district is ranked 548 out of 968 in Texas and has a 2-star rating, the performance of these two schools is relatively similar, with no clear standout based on the available data.

Both Evelyn Turlington Elementary and Roberts Road Elementary serve a predominantly low-income student population, with over 60% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This likely contributes to the schools' below-average performance on STAAR tests, where they trail the state average in most subject areas. Evelyn Turlington Elementary generally scores slightly higher than Roberts Road Elementary, but the difference is marginal. The schools also have similar student-teacher ratios and per-student spending, suggesting a need for more efficient resource allocation and targeted interventions to improve academic outcomes.

The lack of standout schools in the Hockley area is a concern for parents and the community. The Waller ISD's low ranking and 2-star rating indicate a need for district-level improvements to support the schools and their students. Addressing the challenges faced by the low-income population, such as providing additional academic support and resources, may be crucial in driving progress and ensuring all students in Hockley have access to a high-quality education.
