Summary

Travis Elementary is a small PK-5 school in the El Paso Independent School District (Isd), serving about 200 students in a high-poverty area where over 92% qualify for free or reduced lunch. The most exciting news for parents is the school’s dramatic turnaround: after ranking in the bottom 5% of Texas elementary schools in 2023-2024, Travis jumped to the 42nd percentile in 2025-2026, earning a 2-star rating. This 37-percentile-point swing is unmatched by nearby schools like Bliss Elementary (71st percentile) or Coldwell Elementary (56th percentile), which are stable but not improving as rapidly.

A standout strength is the bilingual program. Students taking the STAAR Spanish exam consistently outperformed district and state averages—for example, 62.5% of 5th graders were proficient in Spanish math versus just 22.32% statewide. This success in Spanish contrasts with lower English scores, suggesting the school effectively uses students’ native language to build strong academic foundations. The school also invests heavily in its students, spending $15,977 per pupil—far more than Bliss Elementary ($12,302) or Crockett Elementary ($11,433)—and maintains a low student-teacher ratio of 11.9:1, allowing for more individualized attention.

Despite these gains, science remains a weak spot, with only 9% of 5th graders proficient in 2024-2025. However, the school’s recent progress in reading and math, especially for Hispanic and low-income students (now scoring above state averages), shows that targeted interventions are working. For parents considering Travis, the school offers a strong bilingual program, small classes, and a clear upward trajectory that sets it apart from peers like Logan Elementary (5th percentile) or Colin L Powell Elementary (15.3:1 student-teacher ratio).
