Summary

Young Women's Leadership Academy Pri is a public elementary school in San Antonio, TX, serving 580 female students in grades PK through 5 within the San Antonio Independent School District (Isd).

This school is a standout "pocket of excellence" in a district where many nearby schools struggle. While SAISD ranks in the bottom 20% of the state, YWLA Pri consistently earns 3- and 4-star ratings, ranking in the 61st to 82nd percentile. For example, its 4th-grade reading proficiency (77.38%) is nearly double the district average and well above the state average. This success is especially notable because over half of its students come from low socio-economic backgrounds, and the school is highly effective at serving its African American and Hispanic students, who consistently rank in the 70th-80th percentiles statewide. In contrast, nearby schools like Smith Elementary (14th percentile) and Herff Elementary (1st percentile) face significant challenges. The school's success appears driven by its instructional model and culture rather than spending, as it spends less per student ($16,463) than Green Elementary At Riverside Park ($17,134) but achieves far higher results.

One area of concern is the school's performance with its Gifted and Talented (GT) students, who ranked in the 9th percentile statewide in 2025-2026—a sharp drop from previous years. This suggests the school may need to better challenge its highest-achieving students. Overall, YWLA Pri offers a structured, single-gender environment that produces strong, consistent results from an early age, making it a compelling option for families seeking a high-performing school in the San Antonio area.
