Summary:
The city of Stonewall, Texas is home to a single elementary school, Stonewall Elementary, which serves students from kindergarten through 5th grade. This school is part of the Fredericksburg Independent School District (ISD) and has consistently ranked in the top 20% of Texas elementary schools, with a statewide ranking of 949 out of 4,675 schools in the 2023-2024 school year.
Stonewall Elementary stands out for its exceptional academic performance, particularly in 5th grade. The school's STAAR (State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness) test scores are generally above the district and state averages, with 90% proficiency in 5th grade reading, 65% in math, and 40% in science - all well above the district and state averages. This suggests that the school is doing an excellent job of preparing its oldest students for academic success.
While Stonewall Elementary has a predominantly white student population (80.56%), it also serves a significant percentage of Hispanic students (18.52%) and a small percentage of other racial/ethnic groups. Additionally, 48.15% of the school's students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic need among the student population. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.5 to 1 may contribute to its academic success, but the district and school may need to address the socioeconomic challenges faced by nearly half of the student body to ensure equitable educational opportunities for all.
