Summary

Lasara Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the Lasara Independent School District (ISD) in Lasara, Texas. With 255 students, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-20% of Texas elementary schools over the past decade, earning a 0 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lasara Elementary's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is significantly below the state average across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in reading ranged from 21.05% (4th grade) to 46.67% (7th grade), compared to the state averages of 53.73% to 57.83%. In math, the proficiency rates ranged from 5.26% (4th grade) to 23.53% (6th grade), compared to the state averages of 44.88% to 46.24%. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as English Language Learners (ELL) and students with low socioeconomic status.

When comparing Lasara Elementary to nearby schools, such as Roberto Garate Elementary in the Monte Alto ISD and Pittman Elementary in the Raymondville ISD, it becomes clear that Lasara Elementary is underperforming relative to its peers. However, the school's migrant students have performed relatively well, ranking in the top 15-30% of Texas elementary schools for this subgroup in recent years, suggesting the school may be providing effective support and resources for this population.
