Summary

Loma Terrace Elementary in El Paso, TX, is a PK-5 school in the Ysleta Independent School District (Isd) serving 614 students, and it has engineered a remarkable turnaround from a low point during the pandemic to now rank in the 73rd percentile statewide, making it a strong and improving choice for families.

This school stands out for its exceptional performance in upper-grade mathematics, with 4th and 5th graders achieving proficiency rates of 66.67% and 73.12%—significantly outpacing district and state averages. For context, nearby Pasodale Elementary, which serves a similar demographic, lags behind by over 25 percentage points in these grades. Loma Terrace also excels at supporting all students, ranking in the 87th percentile for serving low socio-economic status students and in the 85th and 86th percentiles for Special Education and Gifted & Talented students, respectively. This dual strength shows the school provides targeted interventions and enrichment, creating a balanced and equitable learning environment.

While not the top performer in the area—Vista Hills Elementary and Eastwood Heights Elementary rank higher—Loma Terrace achieves its results with a much higher percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Its upward trajectory contrasts with peers like Del Valle Elementary and Mission Valley Elementary, which have seen flat or declining performance. The school’s focus on math, especially in upper grades, and its ability to close achievement gaps make it a standout in the district, offering families a school that is both improving and effective for a wide range of learners.
