Summary

Travis Elementary in Edinburg, TX, is a PK-5 campus within the Edinburg Consolidated Independent School District that serves 337 students, with over 86% of its students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. The school presents a mixed picture of performance, showing notable strengths in early-grade reading and exceptional support for Special Education students, while facing significant challenges in mathematics and support for English Language Learners.

Travis Elementary demonstrates a clear strength in reading, particularly in early grades. In the most recent school year, 3rd-grade reading proficiency (58.7%) was higher than both the district (50.9%) and state (51.08%) averages. However, this success does not extend to mathematics, where 3rd-grade proficiency (42.55%) lagged behind the district (48.77%) and state (44.33%). This gap widens dramatically by 5th grade, where math proficiency (31.37%) is 16 percentage points below the state average (47.38%). Among nearby schools, Austin Elementary (0.87 miles away) achieved an 83.33% proficiency rate in 5th-grade math, highlighting a stark contrast. The school also shows a concerning decline in performance for English Language Learners, dropping from the 71st percentile statewide in 2022-2023 to the 23rd percentile in 2024-2025.

Despite these challenges, Travis Elementary excels in supporting Special Education students, ranking in the 65th, 73rd, and 85th percentiles statewide over the last three years—a remarkable achievement that sets it apart from many peers. The school also benefits from a favorable student-teacher ratio of 13.2:1 and per-student spending of $12,682, though these resources do not guarantee top-tier results. For comparison, Freddy Gonzalez Elementary outperforms Travis in nearly every metric despite having a higher student-teacher ratio (17.2:1) and lower per-student spending ($11,579). Nearby Jefferson Elementary (0.69 miles away) and Austin Elementary consistently rank in the 90th and 87th percentiles respectively, suggesting that school leadership and targeted programs are powerful drivers of student outcomes beyond simple demographics or resources.
