Summary

Carlos Coon Elementary in San Antonio, TX, serves 547 students from Pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade within the Northside Independent School District (Isd), and is located in a high-poverty area where over 83% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

This school has faced significant and persistent academic challenges, ranking in the bottom 10% of all Texas elementary schools for the 2025-2026 school year. Proficiency rates in Reading (33.8% to 37.8%) and Math (23.9% to 29.7%) are dramatically lower than both the district and state averages. For example, 5th-grade Math proficiency is just 26.6%, compared to the district's 45% and the state's 47.4%. This is not a new issue; the school has been in the bottom 15th percentile for the last seven years, representing a steady decline from a decade ago when it ranked in the 40th percentile. The struggles are school-wide, affecting all student subgroups uniformly.

What makes this situation particularly striking is the stark contrast with nearby schools. Just over a mile away, Raba Elementary ranks in the 79th percentile and serves a population with a much lower poverty rate (51% free/reduced lunch). Similarly, Elrod Elementary ranks in the top 35% of the state. These neighboring schools achieve proficiency rates that are often double or triple those of Carlos Coon, showing that the challenge is concentrated at this specific campus rather than being a community-wide issue. On a positive note, the school showed a remarkable improvement for Special Education students, who jumped to the 65th percentile in 2024-2025, suggesting that targeted interventions can work. The school's per-student spending ($10,550) is in line with or higher than these higher-performing neighbors, indicating that the issue is not a lack of funding but rather how resources are used to overcome the significant challenges of a high-poverty student body.
