Summary

Flatonia Elementary is a public school in the small, rural community of Flatonia, Texas, serving 349 students in grades PK through 5 as part of the top-ranked Flatonia Independent School District (Isd), which is rated in the 99th percentile statewide. This school has achieved a remarkable transformation over the past decade, climbing from a 2-star rating in 2017-2018 to a consistent 5-star school that now ranks in the 94th percentile for the 2025-2026 school year, making it the highest-performing elementary school in its immediate area.

What truly sets Flatonia Elementary apart is its exceptional academic performance across all grades and subjects, with test scores that far exceed state averages. For example, 4th-grade math proficiency stands at an impressive 93.18% compared to the state average of 49.28%, while 4th-grade reading reaches 90.91% versus 53.04% statewide. The school also excels in science, with 5th-grade proficiency at 68% against the state's 29.57%. This success is consistent across all student groups, earning 5-star ratings for female, male, Hispanic, White, Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status students.

Perhaps most impressive is that Flatonia Elementary achieves these outstanding results while serving a diverse student body, with nearly half of its students (46.7%) qualifying for free or reduced lunch. The school ranks in the 95th percentile for its work with low-income students, demonstrating an effective and equitable educational model. Since 2022-2023, the school has never dropped below the 91st percentile, providing parents with confidence in its long-term quality. While there is room for growth in serving At Risk and Gifted students, Flatonia Elementary's dramatic improvement and consistent excellence make it a standout choice for families in the region, offering a clear academic advantage over other nearby options like Weimar Elementary, Hallettsville Elementary, Vysehrad Elementary, Shiner Elementary, and Moulton Elementary.
