Summary

Elrod Elementary in San Antonio, TX, is a PK-5 school serving 318 students within the Northside Independent School District (Isd), and it stands out as a solidly above-average school in its neighborhood, having climbed from a low point to a current 65th percentile ranking (3 stars) over the last four years.

Elrod is a clear standout compared to nearby schools like Carlos Coon Elementary (9th percentile) and Knowlton Elementary (25th percentile), which have struggled. The school’s strength is especially clear in math, where 5th-grade proficiency reached 60.47%—far above the district average of 44.98% and the state average of 47.38%. Elrod also excels at supporting students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, earning a 4-star rating for its work with this group. With a favorable student-to-teacher ratio of 12.7:1, the school provides a more personalized learning environment, and it achieves these results with spending that is lower than some nearby peers, like Braun Station Elementary.

The biggest area for improvement is 5th-grade science, where proficiency has hovered around 16% for the past three years—well below the state average of about 29%. This "science gap" is a critical weakness that the school can address. Additionally, while Elrod has been effective with students facing economic hardship, it has historically struggled with students classified as "At Risk," earning low ratings in past years. Overall, Elrod is a school on a strong upward trajectory, offering a solid academic foundation with a clear opportunity to grow in science.
