Summary

Memorial Elementary is a public elementary school in New Braunfels, Texas, serving 317 students in grades PK-5. It is part of the New Braunfels Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 219 out of 961 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Memorial Elementary has shown mixed performance on STAAR tests compared to the New Braunfels ISD and Texas state averages. In 2024-2025, the school's 3rd-grade reading proficiency (60%) was higher than the state average (52.02%) but lower than the district average (59.39%). However, its 5th-grade math proficiency (24.44%) was significantly lower than the district (49.45%) and state (46.24%) averages. The school's performance has fluctuated over the years, with some grades and subjects performing better than others.

When compared to nearby schools like Seele Elementary, Lamar Elementary, and Walnut Springs Elementary, Memorial Elementary has generally shown lower academic performance on STAAR tests. The school's relatively high free and reduced lunch rate, which has increased from 50.16% in 2021-2022 to 58.04% in 2023-2024, may be a contributing factor to its academic challenges.
