Summary

Bel Nafegar Sanchez Elementary in Rosharon, TX, is a PK-5 school in the Alvin Independent School District (Isd) serving 719 students, with 63% qualifying for free or reduced lunch, and it has earned a solid 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for three consecutive years, placing it in the 73rd percentile statewide.

This school truly shines in supporting specific groups of students. It ranks in the top 3% of all Texas elementary schools for English Language Learners (97th percentile) and in the 91st percentile for African American students, both earning 5-star ratings. It also excels with low-income students, ranking in the 85th percentile. This is especially impressive when compared to nearby schools like Meridiana Elementary, which has a much lower poverty rate (36.5%) but still outperforms Sanchez in overall test scores. Sanchez is doing more with less, achieving strong results despite serving a higher-needs population. Additionally, the school offers the STAAR Spanish test, and its 3rd-grade Spanish Reading scores (45.45% proficient) far exceed the state average (28.3%), showing effective foundational literacy support in students' native language.

There are a few areas to note. While the school has a standout advanced math program—5th graders taking 6th-grade math achieve proficiency rates more than double the state average (82% vs. 38%)—math scores in the primary grades (3rd and 4th) are below the district average. Also, support for special education students has dropped sharply, from a 55th percentile ranking in 2023-2024 to just the 26th percentile in 2025-2026, a trend worth monitoring. Overall, Sanchez is a strong choice for families, particularly those with English Language Learners or students needing extra academic support, though you may want to ask about math instruction in the early grades and special education services.
