Summary

Milano Elementary is a small, rural PK-5 school in Milano, TX, serving 187 students within the Milano Independent School District (Isd). This school has achieved a remarkable turnaround, rising from the 30th percentile statewide just six years ago to a consistent 4-star rating and 81st percentile rank today, making it a standout academic option in a region where many nearby schools struggle.

One of the most impressive aspects of Milano Elementary is its exceptional performance with students from low-income backgrounds, ranking in the 94th percentile statewide for this group. This is a stark contrast to nearby Hearne Elementary, which serves a similar population but ranks in the 2nd percentile. Milano also consistently outperforms the Texas state average in both Reading and Math across all tested grades. For example, 5th-grade Reading proficiency reached 77.14% compared to the state's 58.47%. While the school has a low student-to-teacher ratio of 12.5:1, it is interesting to note that Mumford Elementary, just 18 miles away, achieves even higher test scores with larger class sizes and a higher poverty rate, proving that multiple factors contribute to success.

Milano Elementary is a true academic beacon in its area, offering a high-quality education that is rare in neighboring towns. While the school has shown a recent dip in 5th-grade Science scores, its history of strong performance in that subject suggests this may be a temporary issue. Overall, Milano Elementary provides a nurturing and effective learning environment that helps all students thrive, making it a valuable asset for the Milano community.
