Summary

Truman Elementary in Edinburg, TX, is a mid-sized school serving 696 students in grades PK-5 within the Edinburg Consolidated Independent School District, where over 85% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Truman has shown remarkable stability in recent years, consistently earning a 3-star rating and ranking in the 52nd to 57th percentile statewide—a solid, middle-of-the-pack performance. Its strongest area is mathematics, where 3rd and 4th graders regularly outperform both district and state averages. The school also excels with English Language Learners, who ranked in the 77th percentile statewide in the most recent year. However, a persistent weakness is 5th-grade science, where proficiency rates have been dramatically lower than state averages for three consecutive years. There is also a concerning "5th-grade cliff" in math, where 5th graders fall about 10 points behind the district average, suggesting a potential challenge with the transition to more complex material.

Compared to nearby schools, Truman stands out for its consistency. While Jefferson Elementary and Austin Elementary achieve top-tier results despite similar poverty levels, Truman has not replicated that success. On the other hand, it outperforms the nearby charter school Idea Edinburg Academy in nearly every subject and grade level. The school’s performance with special education students is inconsistent, swinging from a 4-star to a 2-star rating in consecutive years. Overall, Truman offers a stable, reliable education with clear strengths in early math and ELL support, but faces challenges in upper-grade science and math that families should be aware of.
