Summary

Lynn McKinney Elementary is a K-5 school in the Aledo Independent School District (Isd) in Aledo, TX, serving 538 students and ranking in the 95th percentile statewide for the 2025-2026 school year. This high-performing school stands out for its exceptional work with specific student groups, ranking in the 97th percentile for both Hispanic students and Special Education students—a level of targeted success not matched by nearby peers like Annetta Elementary (89th percentile) or McCall Elementary (92nd percentile). This suggests the school has developed particularly effective programs and a culture that supports diverse learners, making it a standout even within the top-ranked Aledo district.

Reading is a clear strength at Lynn McKinney, with 5th-grade reading proficiency reaching 86.36% in 2025-2026, well above the state average of 58.47%. However, math scores, while still strong, lag behind reading—for example, 3rd-grade math proficiency was 70.53% compared to 80% in reading. This "math gap" is a key area for growth. Interestingly, just 1.18 miles away, Walsh Elementary excels in early-grade math (80.43% in 3rd grade) but sees scores drop in later grades, while Lynn McKinney offers more consistent performance across all grades. In science, Lynn McKinney posted a strong 62.82% in 5th grade, beating many district peers and far exceeding the state average of 29.57%.

The school serves a relatively affluent community, with only 7.99% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, and maintains a favorable student-to-teacher ratio of 15.1:1. This contrasts sharply with nearby schools like Blue Haze Elementary in White Settlement Independent School District (Isd), which serves a higher-needs population and ranks in the 14th percentile. Lynn McKinney’s success with its own low-socioeconomic status students (ranking in the 90th percentile) proves the school is effective regardless of background. For parents, this school offers a consistent, inclusive environment with a proven track record in reading and specialized support, though it has room to grow in math to reach the top 1% of Texas elementary schools.
