Elm Grove Elementary's academic performance is generally lower than the nearby Bear Branch Elementary, Greentree Elementary, and Willow Creek Elementary, which have higher STAAR proficiency rates and higher statewide rankings. However, the school performs better than some schools in the neighboring New Caney Independent School District, such as Porter Elementary and Kings Manor Elementary, which have lower STAAR scores and lower statewide rankings. The school's changing student demographics, with a decrease in the percentage of White students and an increase in the percentage of African American and Hispanic students, may be contributing to the school's academic performance challenges.
