Summary

Norma J Paschal Elementary in Schertz, TX, serves 574 students in grades PK-4 within the Schertz-Cibolo-U City Independent School District (Isd) and has historically been a strong performer, though its statewide ranking has declined from a peak of 4 stars in 2016-2017 to a consistent 3-star rating in recent years.

Paschal Elementary stands out for its exceptional mathematics performance, with 3rd and 4th graders scoring significantly higher than both district and state averages—a trend that has held steady for three years. For example, Paschal’s 4th graders achieved 50% proficiency in math, compared to just 24.76% at nearby Schertz Elementary. The school also excels in supporting specific student groups, with Male Students and Special Education Students both earning 4-star ratings statewide. However, its closest competitor, Green Valley Elementary, has recently overtaken it in overall ranking, particularly in 4th-grade reading (69.03% vs. Paschal’s 52.59%), raising questions about what practices might be replicated. Meanwhile, Randolph Elementary in the Randolph Field Independent School District (Isd) remains an outlier of exceptional performance, ranking in the 96th percentile with far fewer economically disadvantaged students and higher per-student funding.

Despite its overall strengths, Paschal shows inconsistent results for some subgroups, with Hispanic Students and Low Socio-Economic Status Students ranking near the 50th percentile, and historical data indicating past struggles with "At Risk" students. The school’s relatively low free/reduced lunch rate of 31% (2024-2025) is notably lower than nearby schools like Watts Elementary (46.4%) and Schertz Elementary (66.21%), which likely contributes to its higher overall test scores. Within the broader area, Paschal and other SCUC ISD schools consistently outperform those in the Judson Independent School District (Isd), such as Coronado Village Elementary, highlighting a clear performance gap between the two districts.
