Summary:
The 77011 zip code area of Houston, Texas is home to 9 schools, including 7 elementary schools and 2 middle schools, all part of the Houston Independent School District (HISD) except for Ripley House Charter School and Ripley House Middle Campus, which are part of the Bakerripley Community Schools district.
Among the standout schools in this area are Gallegos Elementary, which has the highest statewide ranking and strong test scores, and Tijerina Elementary and Briscoe Elementary, which have seen significant improvements in their statewide rankings. However, the schools in this area generally face challenges, with high rates of economic disadvantage and predominantly Hispanic student populations, leading to lower test scores compared to state and district averages.
Despite these challenges, the data suggests that with the right strategies and resources, these schools have the potential to improve and help their students achieve at higher levels. The presence of charter schools in the area, such as Ripley House, also provides an alternative option for families, though the data indicates that these schools face their own set of challenges. Overall, the schools in the 77011 zip code area present a complex picture, with both obstacles and opportunities for growth and improvement.
