Summary

Memorial Elementary is a small public school in the New Braunfels Independent School District (Isd), serving 261 students from Pre-K through 5th grade. While the district itself is highly rated, Memorial has experienced a significant decline in its state ranking over the past few years, dropping from the 74th percentile to the 46th percentile. This is a stark contrast to nearby schools on the same street, like Walnut Springs Elementary, which has improved to the 81st percentile, and County Line Elementary, which has recovered to the 74th percentile. This suggests that the challenges facing Memorial are specific to the school itself, not the entire neighborhood or district.

A key area of concern is mathematics, where Memorial’s proficiency rates are consistently below both district and state averages. For example, in the most recent testing year, only 30% of 4th graders and 36% of 5th graders met math standards, compared to 55% and 68% at Walnut Springs. The school also has a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students (nearly 51%) than its closest peers, yet its spending per student is lower. This mismatch between student needs and resources may be contributing to the school’s struggles, particularly for its most vulnerable populations. Special Education students, for instance, rank in the bottom 9% of the state, a critical area that requires immediate attention.

Despite these challenges, there are bright spots. Memorial’s reading scores are more competitive, with 3rd graders exceeding the state average in reading proficiency. Additionally, the school’s Gifted and Talented program has historically performed exceptionally well, ranking in the 71st percentile. This suggests that while the school excels with its highest-achieving students, it needs targeted interventions in math and stronger support for all learners to reverse its recent decline. For parents considering this school, it is a place with potential, but one that is currently at a crossroads compared to its improving neighbors in the New Braunfels Independent School District (Isd).
