Summary

Premont Ernest H Singleton Early College Academy is an elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Premont, Texas, with 388 students. The school is part of the Premont Independent School District, which is ranked 825 out of 961 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Premont Ernest H Singleton Early College Academy has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with STAAR test scores significantly below the state average across all grade levels and subjects. The school district spends a relatively high amount per student, ranging from $11,670 to $13,338 per student over the past few years, but this does not seem to translate into improved academic outcomes. Nearby schools, such as Perez Elementary and Harrel Elementary, also struggle with low academic performance and serve high-poverty student populations.

However, some schools in the surrounding districts, like Santa Gertrudis School and Ricardo Elementary, perform significantly better on STAAR tests and have higher rankings. The data suggests that Premont Ernest H Singleton Early College Academy may need to implement more targeted and effective instructional strategies and interventions to address the unique needs of its student population and improve academic achievement over time.
