Summary:

The city of Quemado, Texas has only one school, Maude Mae Kirchner Elementary, which serves grades PK-6 and is part of the Eagle Pass Independent School District (ISD). With a total enrollment of 132 students, the school has a predominantly Hispanic student population (94.7%) and a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (81.82%).

Academically, Maude Mae Kirchner Elementary faces significant challenges, as it consistently performs below the district and state averages on STAAR tests, particularly in 4th grade mathematics and 3rd-4th grade reading. However, the school does show some strengths, such as stronger performance in 6th grade reading and 5th grade science, where proficiency rates are closer to or slightly above the district and state levels. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 2387 out of 4581 Texas elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 2914 out of 4647 in 2022-2023, and its SchoolDigger rating has also varied from 2 to 3 stars out of 5.

The high percentage of economically disadvantaged students and the school's relatively high student-teacher ratio of 15.6 may be contributing factors to the academic challenges faced by Maude Mae Kirchner Elementary. Identifying and replicating the successful instructional strategies used in the school's higher-performing areas, such as 6th grade reading and 5th grade science, could provide valuable insights for the district and other schools facing similar challenges.
