Summary:
The city of San Elizario, Texas is home to 5 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the San Elizario Independent School District (ISD). While the district is ranked 814 out of 968 in Texas and has a 1-star rating, a few schools stand out in the data.
Ann M Garcia-Enriquez Middle School has the highest Algebra I proficiency rate at 89.06% and a relatively low dropout rate of 0.5%. Meanwhile, Alfonso Borrego Senior Elementary has the strongest reading and mathematics proficiency among the elementary schools. However, the schools in San Elizario generally perform below the state average on standardized tests, with the district-level scores also lagging behind.
Demographic factors may play a role, as the student population is predominantly Hispanic, ranging from 97.95% to 99.79% across the schools. Additionally, all schools have very high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. While per-student spending is in line with the state average, the consistently low performance suggests systemic challenges that need to be addressed to improve educational outcomes for the students in this community.
