Elementary Schools in Agua Dulce Independent School District (Isd)

Summary:

The Agua Dulce Independent School District (Isd) in Texas has only one elementary school, Agua Dulce Elementary, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. While the school has some positive attributes, it faces significant challenges in terms of overall academic performance, particularly in mathematics and science.

Agua Dulce Elementary's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 2,175 out of 4,675 Texas elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 3,359 out of 4,647 in 2022-2023. The school exceeds the state average in reading proficiency for 4th and 5th grades, but it significantly underperforms in mathematics and science proficiency across all grade levels. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 82.25% in the 2023-2024 school year.

Despite the higher per-student spending of $11,276 for the 2020-2021 school year and a relatively small class size with a student-teacher ratio of 12:1, Agua Dulce Elementary's academic performance is still lagging behind state averages in several areas. This suggests that simply increasing funding and resources may not be the sole solution, and a more comprehensive approach to improving educational outcomes may be necessary.
