Summary

Lupe Garcia Elementary is a public elementary school in Fate, Texas, serving 796 students in grades PK-6. It is part of the Rockwall Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 135 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating.

While the school's overall performance is generally lower than the Rockwall ISD and Texas state averages, there are some notable differences. Lupe Garcia Elementary's reading and math proficiency rates are particularly weak in 4th grade reading and math, as well as 5th grade science, where they fall significantly behind the district and state. The school also sees a wide range of performance across different student subgroups, with male students outperforming females and Asian and African American students performing better than Hispanic and White students. However, English Language Learners and Special Education students struggle, with low rankings and 1-star ratings in recent years.

Interestingly, the nearby Ouida Springer, Celia Hays, and Sharon Shannon Elementary schools generally outperform Lupe Garcia Elementary in both reading and math proficiency across all grade levels, with higher rankings and more 4- and 5-star ratings. Additionally, the school has seen an increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 27.07% in 2021-2022 to 32.29% in 2023-2024, suggesting a growing population of economically disadvantaged students, which may contribute to the school's overall academic performance. The school also has a relatively high student-teacher ratio, ranging from 16.7 to 18.5 over the past three years, which could be hindering its ability to provide personalized attention and support to its students.
