Summary

University Of Texas Elementary Charter School (UTES) is a small public charter school in East Austin serving 304 students in grades PK through 5, operating independently of the Austin Independent School District (Isd).

UTES presents a striking contrast in performance. It achieves elite, top-tier results for its White and Gifted and Talented students, ranking in the 97th and 98th percentiles respectively—a level unmatched by nearby schools like the high-performing Maplewood Elementary. However, the school struggles significantly with its Hispanic and economically disadvantaged students, who rank in the bottom 38% statewide. This creates a large internal achievement gap that is more pronounced than at many surrounding schools. On a positive note, UTES provides strong support for Special Education students, earning a 4-star rating in the most recent year. The school also operates efficiently, with lower per-student spending ($12,085) and a higher student-teacher ratio (13.8) than nearby AISD schools like Zavala Elementary ($17,760) and Campbell Elementary ($16,740).

Parents should be aware of the school's recent volatility. After a strong period from 2018-2021, UTES experienced a dramatic drop to the 32nd percentile in 2024-2025, followed by a rebound to the 58th percentile in 2025-2026. This suggests the school may be sensitive to changes in curriculum, staff, or student cohort. Additionally, 5th Grade Science scores have been a persistent weakness, with only 9.52% of students proficient in 2024-2025 compared to the state average of 29.57%. For families whose children fit its strongest subgroups, UTES is an excellent choice; for others, the data suggests a less certain outcome.
