Summary

Sageland Elementary is a PK-5 public school in the Ysleta Independent School District (Isd) serving 601 students in a high-poverty area of El Paso, TX, where about 89% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Sageland is a solid, middle-of-the-pack school that stands out for its exceptional support of Special Education students, ranking in the 93rd percentile statewide for this group—a far cry from nearby high-flyers like Vista Hills Elementary and Eastwood Heights Elementary, which don't even publish data for this subgroup. The school also shines in 5th-grade Science, with 55% of students proficient in 2024-2025, well above the district and state averages. However, it faces a notable "4th-grade slump": while 3rd graders outperform state averages in Reading and Math, 4th-grade scores drop below state levels, suggesting a curriculum gap. Additionally, the Spanish-language STAAR Reading program is a significant weakness, with only about 17-22% of students proficient, far below district and state averages.

Despite spending more per student ($12,447) than high-performing neighbors like Vista Hills ($10,668) and Eastwood Heights ($10,138), Sageland's overall academic performance is average, ranking in the 61st percentile statewide. This higher spending likely funds smaller class sizes (13.2:1 ratio) and the specialized programs that drive its equity-focused outcomes, particularly for Special Education students. The school's performance has been inconsistent, with a recent drop from the 73rd percentile in 2024-2025 to the 61st percentile in 2025-2026, which may warrant further investigation. Overall, Sageland is a supportive, stable option in a district with wide performance variance, but it is not an academic powerhouse like its neighbors.

Open Quote This school would be better if they just changed the principal. She is not respectful and very rude towards the parents. She has no people skills and that is very sad because thanks to our kids and our community she has a job. She should really think about that next time she is being disrespectful to grandparents and parents at school. Close Quote
