Summary

Bonham Elementary in San Angelo, TX, is a mid-sized K-5 school serving 571 students in the San Angelo Independent School District (Isd), located in a relatively more affluent area of the city with a lower free/reduced lunch rate (42.38%) compared to many nearby schools.

While Bonham was historically a strong performer, it has seen a notable decline in recent years, dropping from the 69th percentile statewide to the 44th percentile. This is especially concerning when compared to top-performing peers like Ft Concho Elementary and Santa Rita Elementary, which consistently rank in the top 10-15% of the state despite having similar socioeconomic profiles. Even Lamar Elementary, Bonham’s closest neighbor with a nearly identical student body, has achieved more stable results, outperforming Bonham in the most recent year. This suggests Bonham is not translating its economic advantage into academic results as effectively as its peers.

However, there are bright spots. Bonham shows a "bounce" in upper grades, with the same cohort of students making significant gains from 3rd to 5th grade, particularly in Reading. This indicates strong teaching in later years. The school’s biggest weakness is 5th-grade Math, where only 33.64% of students are proficient—well below the state and district averages. Additionally, the school struggles to support its most vulnerable students, with subgroups like English Language Learners and Special Education students ranking in the bottom 20th percentile. For parents, Bonham offers a mixed picture: a school with potential for growth in upper grades but with clear areas needing improvement, especially in math and support for at-risk learners.
