However, the school's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from a high of 722 out of 4,260 Texas elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 2,415 out of 4,647 in 2022-2023. This trend, coupled with the school's lower-than-average STAAR scores, indicates a need for a comprehensive review of the school's instructional practices, resource allocation, and support systems to improve student outcomes.
