Best Public Schools in Kemah, TX

Summary:

The city of Kemah, Texas has only one elementary school, Lavace Stewart Elementary, which serves grades PK-5. This school faces some unique challenges, as it serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, with over two-thirds of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, Lavace Stewart Elementary struggles to keep pace with district and state averages on the STAAR assessments, particularly in 3rd and 5th grade reading, math, and science. The school also performs below average on the Spanish-language STAAR exams, indicating a need to strengthen bilingual education programs and support for English Language Learners. Despite higher per-student spending than the state average, the school's student-teacher ratio is still relatively high, suggesting potential areas for improvement in resource allocation.

Overall, Lavace Stewart Elementary, the sole elementary school in Kemah, faces socioeconomic and academic performance challenges that will require targeted interventions and support from the Clear Creek Independent School District to help improve outcomes for its students.
