Best Public Schools in Zip Code 78019


Summary:

The 78019 zip code in Texas is home to a single elementary school, Encinal Elementary, which serves grades PK-5 and has a total enrollment of 74 students. This school is part of the Cotulla Independent School District (ISD) and has a predominantly Hispanic student population, with 97.3% of students identifying as Hispanic.

Encinal Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with a 1-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally below the district and state averages, with proficiency rates in reading and math for grades 3-5 ranging from 0% to 40%. Additionally, Encinal Elementary has a high percentage of students (89.19%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite the school's low performance, it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.2 to 1, which could be an advantage in providing more individualized attention to students. However, the school's high spending per student ($20,699 in the 2020-2021 school year) raises questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources to improve student outcomes. Overall, the data suggests that Encinal Elementary faces significant challenges in meeting the educational needs of its predominantly economically disadvantaged, Hispanic student population.
