Summary

Idea Monterrey Park Academy is an elementary school in San Antonio, TX, serving 607 students in grades K-5 as part of the Idea Public Schools district, where over 89% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

This school has experienced a dramatic and alarming decline in academic performance over the last two years, dropping from the 40th percentile statewide in 2023-2024 to the 2nd percentile in the most recent data, earning a 0-star rating. The most critical weakness is in mathematics, where proficiency rates are catastrophically low—for example, only 11% of 4th graders are proficient in math compared to the state average of 49.28%. This is a much steeper drop than nearby schools like L B Johnson Elementary (16th percentile) and Loma Park Elementary (13th percentile), which now rank higher. The school also has a higher student-to-teacher ratio (24.8:1) compared to neighbors like Roy Cisneros Elementary (8.4:1), and lower per-student spending ($7,457 vs. $10,451-$12,011 in the surrounding Edgewood Independent School District (Isd)).

Despite this crisis, there is a glimmer of hope: the school performed in the 50th percentile as recently as 2017-2018, showing it has the potential to improve. The decline is school-wide, affecting all student groups, but reading scores show some strength, particularly in 5th grade (35.51% proficient). To turn things around, the school needs a focused, well-funded intervention strategy, with a primary emphasis on improving mathematics instruction and reducing class sizes to provide more individualized support.
