The school is part of the Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District, which is ranked 885 out of 968 school districts in Texas and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Uvalde Elementary's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is significantly below the state averages in both reading and mathematics for grades 3 and 4. For example, in 2023-2024, only 25.5% of 3rd-grade students and 30.68% of 4th-grade students at Uvalde Elementary were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to the state averages of 48.85% and 50.66%, respectively.

Uvalde Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Texas elementary schools, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Interestingly, the nearby Uvalde Dual Language Academy, which is also part of the Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District, outperforms Uvalde Elementary across most academic measures, suggesting that the school's dual-language program may be more effective. Additionally, La Pryor Elementary, located in a different school district (La Pryor Independent School District), outperforms Uvalde Elementary in both reading and mathematics, despite serving a student population with a similar demographic profile. These comparisons suggest that there may be systemic issues within the Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District that need to be addressed.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
