Summary:
The Anderson-Shiro Consolidated Independent School District is home to one elementary school, Anderson-Shiro Elementary, which serves students in grades PK through 5 with a total enrollment of 458 students and a moderate economic disadvantage rate of 39.52% free/reduced lunch.
Anderson-Shiro Elementary is a standout performer, consistently earning a 4-star rating for three consecutive years and ranking in the top 20% of Texas elementary schools (81st percentile in 2025-2026). The school boasts a favorable student-teacher ratio of 13.4:1, which supports individualized attention. Academically, the school significantly outperforms state averages across subjects. For example, in 2025-2026, 5th-grade Reading proficiency reached 79.45%, which is 21 percentage points above the state average, and 3rd-grade Math proficiency was 62.86%, 18.5 points higher than the state. Additionally, 5th-grade Science scores in 2024-2025 were 41.46%, nearly 12 points above the state average.
A key takeaway is the school's remarkable growth in Reading, with proficiency rising from 51.43% in 3rd grade to 79.45% in 5th grade, indicating highly effective cumulative instruction. However, Math performance shows a slight decline from 62.86% in 3rd grade to 54.79% in 5th grade, and 3rd-grade Math scores experienced a notable 16.6 percentage point drop from the previous year, which may warrant review. Despite these fluctuations, the school's strong overall performance, high state ranking, and effective use of resources demonstrate its ability to deliver excellent outcomes for its students.
