Summary

Frank Macias Elementary is a public elementary school in El Paso, Texas, serving 965 students in grades PK-5. It is part of the Clint Independent School District, which is ranked 573 out of 961 school districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite increased per-student spending over the years, Frank Macias Elementary has consistently struggled with low academic performance compared to state and district averages across STAAR assessments in reading, math, and science. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 3rd grade reading proficiency rate of 36.75% was significantly lower than the state (52.02%) and district (44.93%) averages. The school's performance is particularly weak in 5th grade science, where only 16% of students are proficient, compared to 29.57% statewide and 15.73% district-wide. The school also struggles to support its diverse student population, with lower rankings across various subgroups, including English Language Learners and Special Education students.

Interestingly, nearby schools within the Clint Independent School District, such as Carroll T Welch Elementary and Desert Hills Elementary, generally perform better than Frank Macias Elementary on academic measures, though they still struggle to meet state averages. Schools in the neighboring Socorro Independent School District, such as Ben Narbuth Elementary and Horizon Heights Elementary, outperform Frank Macias Elementary and the Clint ISD schools on most academic metrics, suggesting systemic challenges within the Clint district that may need to be addressed.
