Summary

Zach White Elementary is a public elementary school in El Paso, Texas, serving 406 students in grades PK-5 and part of the El Paso Independent School District (EPISD). The school consistently outperforms the EPISD and Texas state averages in STAAR Reading, Mathematics, and Science assessments across grades 3-5, particularly in STAAR Spanish assessments. Zach White Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending compared to the district and state averages.

Zach White Elementary's academic performance is consistently strong, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past 5 school years. However, the school's performance disparities among different student subgroups, such as weaker performance for Gifted and Talented and Low Socioeconomic Status (SES) students, indicate a need to address equity and ensure all students have access to the resources and support they need to succeed. Compared to nearby EPISD schools, Zach White Elementary generally outperforms them in academic assessments, though some schools like Polk Elementary and Guerrero Elementary also demonstrate strong academic performance.

The higher per-student spending at Zach White Elementary may contribute to its stronger academic performance, but it also raises questions about the efficient allocation of resources and the potential for cost-effective strategies to support student learning. Overall, Zach White Elementary appears to be a high-performing school within the EPISD, with a strong focus on academic achievement and a commitment to supporting student learning, though addressing equity and ensuring all students have access to the resources they need remains an area for further improvement.
