Summary:
The Celebrate Dyslexia Schools district in San Antonio, TX, contains just one school, Celebrate Dyslexia School, a specialized elementary institution serving grades K-2 with a very small enrollment of 61 students. This school is uniquely focused on supporting students with dyslexia, which is critical context for understanding its academic performance, as its student body faces significant learning challenges by design.
The school's standout characteristics are its extremely low test scores and state ranking. Celebrate Dyslexia School is ranked 4,627 out of 4,627 schools in Texas for the 2025-2026 school year, placing it in the 0th percentile with zero stars. Its STAAR test scores are dramatically below state averages: for example, 0% of 4th graders were proficient in Mathematics compared to the state average of 49.28%, and only 15.38% of 4th graders were proficient in Reading versus the state's 53.04%. The school does have a favorable student-teacher ratio of 12.2:1, which typically allows for more individualized attention.
A key finding is the "dyslexia paradox": while lower reading scores are expected given the school's mission, the extremely poor performance in Mathematics (0% proficient in 4th grade) suggests challenges extend beyond reading, or that the specialized focus may not be translating to success in other subjects. Additionally, the school only serves grades K-2, yet test score data is for 3rd and 4th graders, which is a major anomaly—likely indicating a very small, non-standard group of students. With only 61 students, the test score percentages are highly volatile, making it difficult to draw statistically significant conclusions about the school's overall effectiveness from year to year.
