Summary

Packsaddle Elementary is an elementary school located in Kingsland, Texas, serving grades PK-5 with 606 students. It is part of the Llano Independent School District, which is ranked 452 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Packsaddle Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools, with a ranking between 2,454 and 3,743 out of around 4,300-4,600 schools over the past 10 years. It has maintained a 1-star or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger during this time. The school consistently underperforms the Llano ISD and Texas state averages on STAAR reading, math, and science assessments across grades 3-5. For example, in 2024-2025 projected scores, Packsaddle Elementary had 36.36% proficient or better in 3rd grade reading, compared to 43.51% for Llano ISD and 52.02% for Texas. This pattern of underperformance is seen across all grade levels and subject areas.

Packsaddle Elementary has a very high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 77.48% to 82.89% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch over the past 3 years. This is significantly higher than the nearby Llano Elementary school, which had 60.86% free/reduced-lunch students in 2023-2024. Despite the challenges, Packsaddle Elementary's higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio compared to the state average suggest that the school may have the resources to potentially improve student outcomes with targeted interventions and support programs focused on the unique needs of the student population.
