Summary

East Point Elementary in El Paso, TX, is a PK-5 school in the Ysleta Independent School District (Isd) serving 558 students, and it has become a standout for its remarkable, consistent improvement over the last five years, climbing from the 37th percentile statewide to the 90th percentile in the 2025-2026 school year.

What truly sets East Point apart is its exceptional ability to support students from low-income backgrounds, ranking in the 98th percentile statewide for effectiveness with this group—a feat that outshines nearby high-performing schools like Eastwood Heights Elementary and Eastwood Knolls International, which serve more affluent populations. The school also excels in special education, ranking in the 91st percentile, and its math scores are a key strength, with 3rd-grade proficiency 28 points above both the district and state averages. This rapid, sustained improvement—every year since 2020-2021—is faster than peers like Glen Cove Elementary and Vista Hills Elementary, which are consistently high but haven't shown the same dramatic upward climb. Compared to Edgemere International School, which has a similar percentage of low-income students but ranks lower (86th percentile), East Point’s programs appear more effective.

While East Point is a model of equity-focused education, 5th-grade science remains a clear area for growth, with proficiency below the district average. However, the school achieves its high results with efficient spending ($11,466 per student), outperforming schools like Sageland Elementary and Cielo Vista Elementary that spend more but rank lower. For parents seeking a school that consistently lifts its students, especially those from diverse backgrounds, East Point’s trajectory and targeted support make it a compelling choice in the Ysleta ISD.
