Summary

Jacob's Well Elementary in Wimberley, TX, serves 553 students in grades 3 through 5 and is part of the highly-rated Wimberley Independent School District (Isd), which ranks in the top 13% of Texas districts. The school has a strong track record, earning a 4-star rating in 8 of the last 10 years, and is the only upper elementary school in the district, fed by Blue Hole Pri (PK-2).

Jacob's Well's greatest strength is its exceptional support for students with special needs, consistently ranking in the top 12-13% of the state in this area—a standout performance compared to nearby high-performing schools like those in Dripping Springs Independent School District (Isd), which lack publicly available data for this metric. The school also excels with male and female students, as well as gifted and talented students. However, it faces a significant challenge with English Language Learner (ELL) students, ranking in the bottom 11-14% of the state for three consecutive years. Additionally, a recent sharp decline in outcomes for low socio-economic status (SES) students—from the top 17% to the 48th percentile in one year—is a major concern that warrants attention.

Academically, Jacob's Well consistently outperforms the state average in Reading by a wide margin, but Math is a relative weakness, with 3rd-grade Math proficiency falling 10 points below the state average in the most recent year. Compared to nearby schools like Sycamore Springs Elementary and Cypress Springs Elementary in Dripping Springs, Jacob's Well trails in overall test scores but serves a more diverse student body, making its performance arguably more impressive. Interestingly, Crockett Elementary in San Marcos, despite serving a very different population, achieves competitive test scores in areas like 5th-grade Reading, highlighting the complexity of school performance in the region.
