Elementary Schools in Eagle Pass Independent School District (Isd)

The Eagle Pass Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to 19 elementary schools serving grades 1-6, with a few offering pre-K and kindergarten as well. The student populations at these schools are predominantly Hispanic, and the majority of students come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, with free or reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 63.87% to 98.66%.

While a few schools in the district stand out, such as Liberty Elementary, which ranks in the top 10% of Texas elementary schools and consistently outperforms the district and state on STAAR assessments, the majority of schools struggle to meet state averages. Schools with the highest percentages of economically disadvantaged students, such as Henry B Gonzalez Elementary, tend to have the lowest academic performance, highlighting the significant challenges faced by high-poverty schools. However, a few schools, like Perfecto Mancha Elementary and Armando Cerna Elementary, rank in the top 25% of Texas elementary schools and have a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The data reveals a wide range of performance within the Eagle Pass ISD, suggesting the district could benefit from analyzing successful practices at the top-performing schools and replicating them across the system. Additionally, several schools show stronger performance in the earlier elementary grades, underscoring the critical importance of building a strong academic foundation in the early years.
