Summary

Wanke Elementary is a public elementary school in San Antonio, Texas, serving 662 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Northside Independent School District. The school's academic performance has been mixed, with proficiency rates in STAAR Reading and Math generally higher than the district and state averages, but with inconsistent results leading to fluctuating 3-star and 2-star ratings from SchoolDigger.

Wanke Elementary has shown some strengths and weaknesses in the performance of different student subgroups. The school has performed well for African American and Special Education students, ranking in the top half of Texas elementary schools in these categories. However, Wanke has struggled with the performance of Hispanic, White, Multi-racial, English Language Learner, and Low Socioeconomic Status students, ranking in the bottom half or bottom quarter of Texas elementary schools in these subgroups. The school maintains a relatively high per-student spending of around $9,400-$9,800 and a student-teacher ratio of around 14-15 students per teacher.

When compared to other nearby elementary schools in the Northside Independent School District, Wanke Elementary generally performs in the middle to lower range, with several schools in the area, such as Great Hearts Invictus and Carson Elementary, outperforming it academically. This suggests that Wanke may have room for improvement in order to keep pace with its neighboring schools and provide a more competitive educational experience for its students.
