Summary

Vida N Clover Elementary in San Juan, TX, is a PK-5 campus serving 378 students within the Pharr-San Juan-Alamo Independent School District (PSJA ISD), where over 94% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, and the school has a low student-to-teacher ratio of 14.8:1.

This school stands out for its dramatic turnaround. After a period of strong performance, it hit a low point but has recently rebounded to a 3-star rating, ranking in the 68th percentile statewide. Most notably, Vida N Clover excels in serving its primary demographic, ranking in the 86th percentile for low socioeconomic status students—the highest among nearby elementary schools like Alfred Sorensen Elementary and Amanda Garza-Pena Elementary. It also shows outstanding support for gifted and talented students (87th percentile) and strong performance for Hispanic students (78th percentile). A key highlight is a remarkable 114% increase in 3rd-grade math proficiency in a single year, now exceeding both district and state averages. However, science remains a critical weakness, with only 25% of 5th graders proficient, and the school struggles to meet the needs of English Language Learners, who rank in the 14th percentile.

Compared to its closest rival, Alfred Sorensen Elementary (just 0.67 miles away), Vida N Clover is closing the gap. In the most recent data, it nearly ties Sorensen in overall ranking (68th vs. 70th percentile) and outperforms it in key areas like 3rd-grade reading (60% vs. 57.35%) and math (52.46% vs. 47.06%). This suggests that the school’s recent interventions are working faster than those at its higher-performing neighbor, making it a compelling choice for families seeking a school on an upward trajectory.
