Summary

Kleberg Elementary in Dallas, TX, serves 870 students from Pre-K through 6th grade in a high-needs area where over 95% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. This school, part of the Dallas Independent School District (Isd), has shown a remarkable recent turnaround after years of struggle, jumping from the 8th percentile statewide in 2023-2024 to the 26th percentile in 2025-2026. This upward trend sets it apart from nearby schools like Seagoville North Elementary (13th percentile) and Ebby Halliday Elementary (32nd percentile but declining), suggesting recent changes at Kleberg are starting to pay off.

One of Kleberg's standout strengths is its exceptional work with Special Education students, who ranked in the 58th percentile statewide in 2025-2026—a dramatic improvement from the 6th percentile just two years prior. The school also excels in Spanish-language assessments, with 5th graders scoring 53% proficient on the STAAR Spanish Reading exam in 2024-2025, well above the state average of 33%. However, the school faces challenges, particularly a "5th-grade wall" in math and science, where proficiency drops sharply—5th-grade math was just 24% in 2025-2026, far below the 52% at nearby Dr Linda Henrie Elementary in the Mesquite Independent School District (Isd).

While Kleberg spends more per student ($12,116) than many peers, including Nancy Moseley Elementary ($11,708), its results have been inconsistent. The school's recent recovery is promising, but it still ranks lowest among its four immediate Dallas ISD neighbors, with Richard Lagow Elementary (27th percentile) and Nancy Moseley (34th percentile) outperforming it. For families, Kleberg offers a dedicated special education program and strong bilingual support, but parents should be aware of the need for extra help in upper elementary STEM subjects.
