GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

If you are new to the area search 77095 for better schools in this district. Tipps has changed a lot and not for the better of the children. Parent engagement has declined. Spark park is new but it’s for looks no one is allowed to used it.

The school feels really safe, good job to the staff on the security.Having the buses and parking at the chuch next door is great. Good job!Only feedback I have is that I would like there to be more color in the school, more decorations.Its just a preference, maybe its just the school showing its age...
