Summary

Hidden Forest Elementary is a PK-5 public school in San Antonio, TX, serving 529 students within the North East Independent School District (Isd), and it consistently ranks as a strong performer, currently in the 85th percentile statewide.

This school stands out for its exceptional mathematics program, particularly in advanced grades. For at least four consecutive years, 6th-grade students have achieved a 100% proficiency rate in math—a dramatic outlier compared to the district (41.5%) and state (38.57%) averages. Reading scores are also consistently excellent, outperforming district and state averages by 10-20 percentage points across all tested grades. However, Hidden Forest is currently in a relative dip compared to its own history, having peaked in the 94th percentile in 2017-2018. It has been surpassed by nearby top-tier schools like Vineyard Ranch Elementary (96th percentile) and Stone Oak Elementary (95th percentile).

A key challenge for Hidden Forest is a significant achievement gap for its low-income students, who rank in only the 55th percentile statewide—a stark contrast to the school’s overall high performance. This is a critical area for improvement. Interestingly, the school’s success is not driven by higher spending; its per-student spending ($9,009) is lower than nearby schools like Oak Meadow Elementary ($12,347) and Larkspur Elementary ($10,615), suggesting its strength comes from community support and effective instruction. The school’s ability to close the equity gap will be key to returning to its former 5-star status.
