Summary

Mount Auburn Steam Academy is an elementary school in Dallas, Texas, serving 533 students in grades PK-5 and part of the Dallas Independent School District.

Despite increased per-student spending, Mount Auburn Steam Academy has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools over the past 10 years, with a 1 or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger indicating below-average performance. The school struggles across various student subgroups, with particularly low proficiency rates in reading, math, and science compared to district and state averages. For example, in 2024-2025, only 37.93% of 3rd graders were proficient in reading, compared to 47.27% for the district and 52.02% for the state. This underperformance is seen across Hispanic students, English Language Learners, Special Education students, and Gifted and Talented students.

When comparing Mount Auburn Steam Academy to other nearby schools in the Dallas ISD, such as Lakewood Elementary and Solar Prep for Boys at John F. Kennedy, it performs significantly worse, with these high-performing schools boasting strong proficiency rates and rankings. The high poverty levels, large population of English Language Learners, and low rankings of subgroups suggest that Mount Auburn Steam Academy may be facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its diverse student body.
