Summary

Wolflin Elementary in Amarillo, TX, is a mid-sized school serving 326 students in grades PK through 5, located in a residential area of the Amarillo Independent School District (Isd).

Wolflin stands out as a consistent academic leader in its area, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for five consecutive years and ranking in the 76th percentile statewide. This is especially notable given that about 68% of its students are economically disadvantaged. The school dramatically outperforms many nearby schools, such as Bivins Elementary (29th percentile) and Wills Elementary, which have dropped to 1-star ratings. Wolflin’s STAAR test scores are well above district and state averages, with 4th grade math proficiency at 71.43% compared to the district’s 46.8%. Its Gifted and Talented program is in the 94th percentile statewide, earning a 5-star rating. The school also effectively serves its "At Risk" and low socio-economic status students, who consistently earn 4-star ratings, showing that its success reaches a broad cross-section of the student body.

However, there are key areas for parents to consider. Wolflin experiences a noticeable "5th grade dip," with math proficiency dropping to 38.18% in 2025-2026, below both district and state averages. Support for special education students has been inconsistent, fluctuating from a 1-star to a 4-star rating in recent years. For comparison, Glenwood Elementary (1.52 miles away) matches Wolflin’s 76th percentile ranking while serving a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students, while Landergin Elementary (1.1 miles) excels in math but struggles significantly in reading. Overall, Wolflin is a bright spot in the district, offering strong early-grade foundations and exceptional gifted support, though parents should be aware of the challenges in 5th grade and special education consistency.
