Summary

Pecan Valley Elementary is a PK-5 school in San Antonio, TX, serving 457 students within the East Central Independent School District (Isd), where over 81% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. This school has experienced a dramatic decade-long decline from a 72nd percentile ranking in 2012 to its current 27th percentile, but recent test scores offer a glimmer of hope—3rd-grade reading proficiency jumped from 15.87% to 44.58% and math from 9.68% to 41.67% in the last year, suggesting new interventions may be taking hold.

What sets Pecan Valley apart from its district peers is its contrasting trajectory. While Salado Elementary and Highland Forest Elementary have surged to the 69th and 85th percentiles respectively, Pecan Valley has stagnated. A critical weakness appears in 5th-grade science, where only 9.88% of students are proficient compared to 34.62% at Salado. However, there is a notable bright spot: African American students at Pecan Valley rank in the 63rd percentile statewide, earning a 3-star rating—far above the school's overall performance. Interestingly, the school spends $11,061 per student, higher than Salado's $8,599, indicating funding isn't the primary issue.

Compared to nearby schools in the San Antonio Independent School District (Isd), which often rank in the 1st-6th percentile, Pecan Valley's 27th percentile makes it a relatively higher-performing option. Yet the school faces a paradox with its Gifted and Talented students, who rank in the 7th percentile statewide, suggesting a need for better enrichment. With a low student-to-teacher ratio of 13.7:1 and recent academic improvements, Pecan Valley shows potential for recovery, but it must address its science instruction and advanced learner support to match the momentum of its district neighbors.
