Summary

Cable Elementary is a public elementary school in San Antonio, Texas, serving 413 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Northside Independent School District, which is ranked 503 out of 961 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Cable Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools over the past several years, with proficiency rates in STAAR Reading, Math, and Science significantly lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 34.69% of 3rd graders at Cable Elementary were proficient in STAAR Reading, compared to 50.71% in the district and 52.02% statewide. The school's performance is particularly weak in STAAR Math, with only 18.75% of 3rd graders, 30.91% of 4th graders, and 42.22% of 5th graders achieving proficiency in 2024-2025, compared to district and state averages in the 40-45% range.

While Cable Elementary's per-student spending is higher than the district and state averages, this has not translated into improved academic outcomes. The nearby Hull Elementary, Westwood Terrace Elementary, Passmore Elementary, and Meadow Village Elementary generally perform better than Cable Elementary on STAAR assessments, though they still struggle to meet state and district averages. The performance of local charter schools is also mixed, with some outperforming Cable Elementary and the district, while others perform even worse, suggesting that the school type is not the sole determinant of academic success.
