School Overview

Gross Elementary sits in the Sharpstown area of southwest Houston, a dense, multicultural neighborhood known for its international restaurants, immigrant communities, and affordable family housing. The school shows more strength in math and science than in English, which might appeal to families looking to build strong foundational STEM skills early on, though supporting reading development at home would go a long way here. It's a neighborhood school in every sense — rooted in a working-class, globally diverse community where families from all over the world are raising kids side by side.
