Ketelsen Elementary

Ketelsen Elementary sits in the historic Northside neighborhood of Houston, a working-class community with deep roots and a strong sense of place just north of downtown. The school lands in the middle of the pack academically, with English and math scores hovering near the 47th percentile, though science scores lag a bit behind. Families who are rooted in this tight-knit area and value a neighborhood school with a local feel will find Ketelsen a familiar and community-connected option, even as there's room to grow on the academic side.
