Summary

Freiheit Elementary in New Braunfels, TX, is a mid-sized school serving 662 students from Pre-K through 5th grade within the highly-rated Comal Independent School District (Isd), and it has shown a remarkable upward trajectory from a 1-star rating to a current 4-star rating over the past decade.

One of the most notable strengths at Freiheit is its exceptional performance with African American students, ranking in the 96th percentile statewide—a standout achievement that far exceeds nearby schools. The school has also demonstrated strong and consistent improvement in its overall state ranking, climbing from the 28th percentile in 2016-2017 to the 72nd percentile for the 2025-2026 school year. This upward trend is more dramatic than its closest neighbor, Farias-Spitzer Elementary, which has remained stable, and contrasts with Clear Spring Elementary, which has seen a decline. However, Freiheit faces a significant challenge in 4th-grade mathematics, where only 35.45% of students were proficient—26 points below the district average and a sharp drop from its strong 3rd and 5th-grade math scores. This "4th-grade wall" suggests a need for targeted intervention in math instruction at that level.

Despite lower per-student spending ($9,668) compared to some nearby schools like Walnut Springs Elementary and Seele Elementary, Freiheit has achieved a higher overall ranking, indicating efficient resource use. Interestingly, several schools from the neighboring New Braunfels Independent School District (Isd), such as Lamar Elementary and Carl Schurz Elementary, currently outrank Freiheit, showing room for growth. The school also has mixed results for other student groups, with strong outcomes for male and Asian students but lower performance for Hispanic and English Language Learner students, presenting an opportunity to apply successful strategies from its standout subgroup to improve overall equity.
