Summary

Ogden Elementary is a PK-5 public school in the San Antonio Independent School District (Isd) serving 335 students in a high-poverty area, where over 94% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school has faced persistent academic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom 1-4% of Texas elementary schools over the past decade, with recent data showing a slight improvement to the 4th percentile.

A critical and unique pattern at Ogden is a dramatic decline in performance between 3rd/4th grade and 5th grade—a "5th-grade cliff" not seen in nearby schools. For example, in the 2025-2026 school year, only 10.42% of 5th graders were proficient in Reading, compared to 43.32% districtwide and 58.47% statewide. In Math, just 8.33% of 5th graders were proficient, versus 33.83% district and 47.38% state. This drop-off is stark when compared to Fenwick Academy, where 5th-grade Reading proficiency (43.75%) was nearly identical to 3rd-grade (45.28%), or Irving Dual Language Academy, where 5th-grade Reading (70.59%) was significantly higher than 3rd-grade (57.69%). While Ogden’s per-student spending ($11,193-$12,343) is slightly above the state average, its outcomes lag far behind peer schools serving similar demographics.

There is a glimmer of hope: Special Education students at Ogden ranked in the 13th percentile statewide in 2024-2025, a notable improvement from the 1st percentile the prior year, suggesting targeted interventions may be working. However, the success of nearby Irving Dual Language Academy—a top-performing school in the district ranking in the 72nd percentile despite serving a similarly high-poverty population—highlights that Ogden’s challenges are not solely due to socioeconomic factors. This contrast suggests that significant, systemic changes in instructional approach, leadership, or curriculum may be necessary to improve outcomes for all students.
