Summary

Alfonso Borrego Senior Elementary is a public elementary school in San Elizario, Texas, serving grades 3-6 with a student population of 495. The school is part of the San Elizario Independent School District, which is ranked 830 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's slightly higher per-student spending and student-teacher ratio compared to state averages, Alfonso Borrego Senior Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools over the past 5 years, with performance on STAAR assessments significantly below state and district averages across all grade levels and subjects. The school's proficiency rates in reading and math are 10-25 percentage points lower than the state averages, and its performance on STAAR Spanish assessments and for special education and gifted and talented students is also notably weaker.

The challenges faced by Alfonso Borrego Senior Elementary may be partly attributed to its high percentage of economically disadvantaged and English Language Learner (ELL) students, who often face additional barriers to academic success. While nearby schools within the San Elizario Independent School District show similar patterns of underperformance, some schools in the Socorro Independent School District, such as Campestre Elementary and Escontrias Steam Academy, demonstrate higher academic achievement, indicating that the challenges faced by Alfonso Borrego Senior Elementary may be specific to the San Elizario district.
