Public Grades

Summary

Joaquin Elementary is a public elementary school in Joaquin, Texas, serving 344 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Center Independent School District (Isd), which is ranked 360 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Joaquin Elementary stands out for its significantly higher percentage of white students (79.36%) compared to the nearby Center Elementary schools, where the white student population is around 26%. Academically, the school shows mixed performance, performing better than the state in some areas like 3rd and 4th grade math, but lagging behind in 5th grade reading and science. The school's performance also varies across different student subgroups, with relatively strong results for special education and low socioeconomic status students, but struggles with Hispanic and English Language Learner students.

Despite spending more per student ($11,258) than the nearby Center Elementary schools ($11,155), Joaquin Elementary's academic performance has fluctuated over the years, with a high ranking of 442 out of 4,286 Texas elementary schools in 2015-2016 and a low of 1,757 out of 4,578 in 2020-2021. This suggests the need for the school and district to examine how resources are being utilized and to implement targeted interventions to address the observed achievement gaps, particularly for Hispanic and English Language Learner students.
