Summary

Green Elementary At Riverside Park is a PK-5 school in the San Antonio Independent School District (Isd) serving 368 students in a highly economically disadvantaged area, where over 94% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school has achieved a remarkable turnaround, climbing from the bottom 5% of Texas elementary schools (0 stars) between 2015-2019 to a 52nd percentile ranking (3 stars) in 2025-2026, a dramatic rise from the 4th percentile just six years prior. This sustained improvement sets it apart from many nearby schools, such as Herff Elementary, which has consistently ranked in the bottom 1% of the state over the same period.

Green Elementary stands out for its strong performance in mathematics, with 4th-grade math proficiency (51.52%) exceeding both the district and state averages, and significantly outperforming nearby schools like Briscoe Elementary and Steele Montessori Elementary. The school invests heavily in its students, spending $17,134 per pupil (2020-2021) and maintaining a low student-teacher ratio of 12.7:1, the lowest among nearby schools like Eloise Japhet Elementary (15.8:1) and Briscoe (17.8:1). This investment pays off particularly for special education and low-socioeconomic status students, with the school ranking in the 71st percentile for special education and 70th percentile for low-SES students in 2025-2026, a notable achievement for a high-poverty school.

An interesting comparison is with Bonham Academy, a higher-ranked school overall (34th percentile) but with a much lower poverty rate (64.66% vs. 94.29%). Green Elementary actually outperforms Bonham in 4th-grade math (51.52% vs. 42.68%), demonstrating strong academic results despite greater socioeconomic challenges. The school's bilingual program also shows exceptional results in Spanish-language math tests, with 4th graders scoring 60% proficient compared to the state average of 29.41%. However, science remains a critical weakness, with only 16.33% of 5th graders proficient in 2024-2025, well below the state average of 29.57%. While the school's year-over-year rankings show some volatility due to small cohort sizes, the overall trajectory is clearly positive, transforming from a 0-star school to a consistent 3-star performer.
