Summary

Adams Hill Elementary is a public elementary school in San Antonio, Texas, serving 464 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Northside Independent School District, which is ranked 503 out of 961 districts in the state.

Despite a relatively low student-teacher ratio, Adams Hill Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools over the past decade, with significantly lower academic performance than the district and state averages on STAAR tests. The school's proficiency rates in reading and math are projected to be around 30-40%, compared to 50-55% for the district and 45-55% for the state. This underperformance is particularly pronounced for the school's majority Hispanic and economically disadvantaged student population, with around 85-87% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Interestingly, the nearby Big Country Elementary, which is part of the Southwest Independent School District, has significantly higher academic performance, ranking in the top half of Texas elementary schools and outperforming the state and district averages on STAAR tests. Additionally, there are several public charter schools within a 1-2 mile radius of Adams Hill Elementary, such as Harmony School of Excellence, IDEA Burke Academy, and IDEA Mays Academy, which also generally have higher academic performance than Adams Hill Elementary.
