Summary

Susie Fuentes Elementary in Kyle, TX, serves 726 students in grades PK-5 within the Hays Consolidated Independent School District, where about 58% of students are economically disadvantaged and the school has a favorable 14:1 student-teacher ratio.

Susie Fuentes Elementary ranks in the 39th percentile statewide, placing it in the lower-middle tier of Texas elementary schools and creating a notable contrast with nearby schools. For example, Jim Cullen Elementary (87th percentile) is only 3.4 miles away, while Science Hall Elementary (21st percentile) is even closer. The school shows a significant gender performance gap, with female students ranking in the 52nd percentile and male students in the 29th percentile. However, its Gifted and Talented program is a standout asset, consistently ranking in the 87th percentile. In 5th-grade reading, the school achieved 59.09% proficiency, slightly above the state average, while science remains a critical weakness with only 21.82% proficiency. Math performance has been volatile, with 4th-grade scores fluctuating from 32% to 27.93% to 41.54% over recent years.

Per-pupil spending at Susie Fuentes ($10,244) is higher than at higher-performing schools like Blanco Vista Elementary ($9,510) and Ralph Pfluger Elementary ($8,852), but lower than at lower-performing schools like Hemphill Elementary ($11,821), indicating that spending alone does not predict success. The school's overall performance is below district and state averages in core subjects, but its strong GT program and relative reading strength in upper grades offer bright spots. Families should consider how the school's mid-tier ranking and internal disparities compare with nearby options like Kyle Elementary (66th percentile) or Laura B Negley Elementary (63rd percentile) when making enrollment decisions.
