Summary

Windcrest Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in the North East Independent School District (NEISD) in San Antonio, Texas, with 491 students. The school has consistently been ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools by SchoolDigger, receiving 1-2 out of 5 stars in recent years.

Windcrest Elementary faces significant challenges in academic performance, particularly in mathematics and science. The school consistently underperforms compared to the NEISD district and the state of Texas on STAAR standardized tests across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 28.74% of 3rd graders were proficient in reading, compared to 52.02% statewide. Math proficiency rates were even lower, with only 11.63% of 3rd graders and 12.9% of 5th graders meeting standards. The school's performance for specific student subgroups, such as English Language Learners and Gifted and Talented students, is mixed, with the school struggling to support its special education and low-income students, who rank in the bottom quartile of Texas schools.

Interestingly, the other NEISD elementary schools in the vicinity, such as Clear Spring, Serna, Camelot, and Walzem, generally outperform Windcrest Elementary on academic measures, with higher proficiency rates in reading, math, and science. Additionally, two nearby charter schools, Idea Walzem Academy and Sst Alamo, also outperform Windcrest Elementary on academic measures, despite serving similar student populations.

My son was let go with someone who wasn't suppose to pick him even after I called the school and told him he was suppose to get on the school bus. This has happened more then once. Their excuse was I didn't turn in any legal paper work. Did they ask for legal paper work on the other side, NO! If they had they would've known he wasn't suppose to be picked up by anyone except me! How is this safe for any child? Close Quote

I went to this school for the entirety of my childhood until I went to middle school. Can't say that I enjoyed it. I remember one time where they had an author of a children's book come in to speak for us. He ended up calling me out out of the entire school in the auditorium just because I wasn't looking directly at him. He kept telling me to look at him and pay attention even though I had ADHD and I really couldn't because my mind wanted to keep wandering. He called me out 3 times and by the third time I finally realized he was talking to me and he sayd "hey you...yeah YOU. If you don't pay attention and look up here I'm going to DRAG you out of the auditorium."

No one did anything or said anything. It definitely put some fear into me and I can honestly say it was one of the worst experiences of my childhood. Too bad we didn't have smart phones in that day because I would have recorded that so my parents could have sued the school.

The only good thing about the school was that they had Alamo City Heat (a police officer rock cover band) come to play music, which probably helped get me into music. Close Quote
