Alta Loma Elementary

Public Grades
Summary

Alta Loma Elementary is a public elementary school in San Angelo, Texas, serving students from kindergarten to 5th grade as part of the San Angelo Independent School District. The school has a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students compared to nearby schools, and consistently underperforms the district and state averages in academic assessments, ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools.

Despite a relatively low student-teacher ratio and high spending per student, Alta Loma Elementary has struggled to improve its academic performance over the years. The school's 5th-grade reading proficiency rate was just 11.76% in 2023-2024, far below the district's 43% and the state's 53.96%. Nearby schools like Ft Concho Elementary and Santa Rita Elementary perform significantly better, while others, such as Reagan Elementary and Goliad Elementary, also struggle with low academic achievement and rankings.

The high rates of economic disadvantage, as indicated by the school's free and reduced lunch program, which ranges from 76.24% to 86.46%, may be a significant factor contributing to the school's poor academic performance. The racial and socioeconomic disparities within the San Angelo Independent School District suggest that systemic issues need to be addressed to improve educational outcomes for all students.
