Summary

Liberty Elementary in Azle, TX, is a PK-4 school serving 540 students within the Azle Independent School District (Isd), a district with a 2-star rating that places it in the 42nd percentile statewide. Over the past decade, Liberty Elementary has experienced a significant decline, dropping from the 71st percentile in 2015-2016 to the 29th percentile for the 2025-2026 school year, earning a 1-star rating. This downward trend is consistent across most student groups, suggesting systemic challenges rather than issues isolated to a specific population.

The most notable differentiator for Liberty Elementary is its persistent struggle with mathematics, where proficiency rates have consistently fallen well below both district and state averages. For example, in the 2025-2026 school year, only 34.58% of 3rd graders and 35.45% of 4th graders were proficient in math, compared to state averages of 44.33% and 49.28%, respectively. This is a stark contrast to nearby schools within the same district, such as Silver Creek Elementary (6.34 miles away), which achieved 59.52% proficiency in 4th-grade math, and Eagle Heights Elementary (5.61 miles away) with 64.56%. Interestingly, the school shows a relative strength in serving its Gifted and Talented (GT) students, ranking in the 57th percentile for this subgroup in 2024-2025, earning a 3-star rating—the highest subgroup ranking in recent years.

Another critical finding is that Liberty Elementary spends more per student ($10,622) than higher-performing peers like Cross Timbers Elementary ($9,034) and Walnut Creek Elementary ($8,405), indicating that funding alone does not explain the performance gap. The school’s reading scores, while below state averages, are closer to district averages than its math scores, suggesting that math instruction may need targeted intervention. With over 61% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, the school serves a high percentage of students from low socio-economic backgrounds, and its student-teacher ratio of 15.3:1 is slightly above the district average. The disparity in performance compared to other schools in the same district highlights that the challenges at Liberty Elementary are likely school-specific, related to leadership, instructional practices, or school culture, rather than a district-wide issue.
