Houston EL is a elementary school located in Conroe, TX, serving grades -1–4 and approximately 608 students. Operated by Conroe ISD, the campus sits about 7.2 miles from Willis News's newsroom and is part of Willis News's ongoing local education coverage.
The school employs roughly 45 full-time-equivalent classroom teachers for a student-to-teacher ratio of about 13.5:1. That ratio is below the state average for TX, generally an indicator of smaller class sizes and more individualized instruction.
Houston EL is a traditional zoned public school within Conroe ISD, meaning enrollment is generally tied to residence within the school's attendance boundary. Boundary maps and feeder patterns are published by the district and updated annually.
State accountability ratings for TEA are released annually and combine student achievement, growth, and closing-the-gaps metrics. Willis News publishes rating updates as soon as they become public each fall, with comparisons to nearby campuses and prior-year trends.
For families in Conroe considering elementary placement, Houston EL is one of the campuses Willis News regularly covers — including school board decisions, bond elections, and individual program changes that affect enrollment.
