Summary

Olmos Elementary is a PK-5 public school in the North East Independent School District (Isd) in San Antonio, TX, serving 486 students in a diverse area where 84.77% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. This school has shown a remarkable upward trajectory, climbing from the 42nd percentile statewide in 2016-2017 to the 69th percentile in the most recent data, and it stands out for its exceptional support of students from low socio-economic backgrounds, ranking in the 90th percentile statewide for serving this group.

The school’s bilingual program is a standout success, with Spanish-language STAAR scores consistently 15-30 percentage points higher than the district average and often double the state average. For example, in 2024-2025 5th Grade Reading (STAAR Spanish), Olmos scored 80% proficient, compared to the district’s 48.05% and the state’s 32.91%. This contrasts sharply with nearby schools like Jackson-Keller Elementary and Ridgeview Elementary, which struggle with Spanish-language test scores. In 4th Grade Math (STAAR Spanish), Olmos scored 65.91% proficient, while Jackson-Keller scored just 9.3% and Ridgeview scored 30%. This highlights a specialized and highly effective instructional strategy at Olmos.

Olmos also shows a consistent upward trend, unlike some neighbors such as Somerset Academy Lone Star, which has volatile rankings. While Castle Hills Elementary (1.68 miles away) achieves high scores with a low-poverty population, Olmos achieves strong, above-average results with a high-poverty population, outperforming its more affluent district peer Ridgeview and dramatically outperforming high-poverty peers in the San Antonio Independent School District (Isd) like Neal Elementary and Wilson Elementary. A potential area for growth is early English Math, with 3rd Grade English Math scores improving from 15.22% in 2023-2024 to 37.5% in 2024-2025, but still lagging behind the school’s other stellar metrics.
