Summary

Matias De Llano Elementary is a PK-5 school in Laredo, TX, serving 453 students within the United Independent School District (Isd), and it has earned a consistent 4-star rating from Schooldigger for the past five years, currently ranking in the 79th percentile statewide.

This school stands out for its exceptional ability to support students from low socio-economic backgrounds, ranking in the 95th percentile for serving this group in the 2023-2024 school year. While nearby schools like Kazen Elementary (98th percentile) and San Isidro Elementary (96th percentile) are top-tier, and others like Amparo Gutierrez Elementary (38th percentile) and Finley Elementary (25th percentile) struggle, Matias De Llano offers a reliable, high-quality education. The school is particularly strong in Reading and Math for grades 3-5, with 5th graders achieving 73.61% proficiency in Reading and 66.67% in Math in the 2024-2025 school year, outperforming both district and state averages. However, 5th Grade Science is a persistent weakness, with only 27.78% of students proficient in the same year, below the district and state averages.

Interestingly, while the school excels with its general and low-income populations, it ranks only in the 62nd percentile for its Gifted and Talented students, suggesting a need for more enrichment for high-achievers. Matias De Llano is located in a competitive neighborhood with five schools ranked in the 80th percentile or higher within a two-mile radius, including Nye Elementary, Dr Malakoff Elementary, Charles Borchers Elementary, Trautmann Elementary, and Col Santos Benavides Elementary. Despite this, the school achieves strong results with a lower per-student spending of $11,360 compared to some lower-performing peers, indicating efficient resource management and a strong school culture.
