Summary

Dr. Elba and Domingo Garcia West Dallas STEM School is a small, specialized elementary school in the Dallas Independent School District, serving 124 students from Pre-K through 3rd grade in the West Dallas area. This school stands out for its remarkable ability to help students from all backgrounds succeed, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranking in the 78th percentile statewide. With a low student-teacher ratio of 11:1, the school provides a more intimate learning environment than many nearby schools, such as Stevens Park Elementary (15.7:1) and Uplift Heights Prep (20:1).

The school's STEM focus is delivering strong results, particularly in math. In the 2025-2026 school year, 4th-grade math proficiency reached 66.67%, significantly outpacing the district average of 49.13% and the state average of 49.28%. This is a stark contrast to nearby schools like Hogg New Tech Center (36.17% in 3rd-grade math) and Esperanza Medrano Elementary (17.65% in 3rd-grade math). The school also excels in reading, with 3rd-grade reading proficiency at 66.67% compared to the district's 49.11% and state's 51.08%. Notably, the school achieves 5-star ratings for its work with students from low socio-economic backgrounds and African American students, ranking in the 94th and 96th percentiles respectively for these groups.

While the school is a clear bright spot in the area, it has room for growth in supporting its highest-achieving students, receiving a 1-star rating for Gifted and Talented support. However, its overall performance is impressive when compared to the closest neighbor, C.F. Carr Elementary, which serves a similar community but holds only a 2-star rating. For parents seeking a school that combines a strong STEM curriculum with small class sizes and a proven track record of helping students thrive, this school is a standout choice in the Dallas area.
