Summary

Silos Elementary in San Antonio, TX, is a large school serving 1,011 students in Pre-K through 5th grade within the Medina Valley Independent School District (Isd), where about 60% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. However, the school currently ranks in the 26th percentile statewide (1 star), making it the lowest-performing school in its district and significantly below nearby schools like Lieck Elementary (69th percentile) and Wernli Elementary (73rd percentile).

A key concern is the school's high student-to-teacher ratio of 19.4:1, the highest among all comparable schools in the area. For context, high-performing neighbors like Langley Elementary (13.3:1) and Lacoste Elementary (13.6:1) have much smaller class sizes, which likely impacts the individualized attention students receive. This ratio may be a root cause of the school's consistent underperformance in mathematics, where 4th-grade math proficiency (30.23%) is 19 points below the state average and 14 points below the district average.

An interesting pattern emerges in test scores: 4th grade is a significant challenge, with the lowest scores in both reading and math, while 5th grade shows a notable recovery, nearly reaching district averages. This "V-shaped" trend suggests that either the 4th-grade curriculum or instruction is a pain point, or the 5th-grade team is exceptionally effective at remediation. Compared to Wernli Elementary just 3.5 miles away, the gap is stark—5th-grade science at Silos (25.98%) versus Wernli (49.07%)—highlighting that Silos faces unique challenges not shared by its district peers like Ladera Elementary (42nd percentile) or Luckey Ranch Elementary (46th percentile).
