Summary

Winn Montessori is an elementary school in the Austin Independent School District (ISD) in Austin, Texas, serving grades PK-5 with 307 students. Despite its Montessori approach, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools over the past decade, with a current 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Winn Montessori's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subjects. In 2024-2025, only 59.26% of 3rd graders, 35.71% of 4th graders, and 39.13% of 5th graders were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to the Austin ISD averages of 58.14%, 57.87%, and 62.97%, respectively. The school's performance on STAAR Mathematics and Spanish assessments was also notably lower than the district and state. Interestingly, Magnolia Montessori For All, a public charter school located less than a mile from Winn Montessori, outperforms the district on most academic measures, suggesting the Montessori approach may be more effective in this community.

Winn Montessori's higher per-student spending of $15,846 in 2020-2021, compared to nearby schools, and its smaller class sizes with a student-teacher ratio of 13.1 in 2023-2024, indicate that resources may not be effectively allocated or utilized to improve academic outcomes. The school also faces significant challenges in addressing the unique needs of its student population, with 63.19% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year. Exploring the successful practices of nearby Montessori schools could provide valuable insights and opportunities for Winn Montessori to improve its educational approach and student performance.
