Summary

Price Elementary is a public elementary school in San Antonio, Texas, serving 394 students in grades PK-5. It is part of the South San Antonio Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 879 out of 961 districts in the state.

Price Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with significantly below-average performance on state assessments. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 31.71% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to 35.43% for the district and 57.83% for the state. The school's performance is particularly low in STAAR Science, with just 21.43% of 5th graders proficient or better, compared to 10.95% for the district and 29.57% for the state. However, Price Elementary has shown some success in serving its Gifted and Talented student population, ranking 783 out of 2,958 Texas elementary schools in this subgroup in 2021-2022.

The school's challenges may be related to its high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (94.16%) and English Language Learners. While Price Elementary spends more per student ($11,822 in 2020-2021) compared to nearby Palo Alto Elementary ($10,063) and Roy Benavidez Elementary ($10,439), the additional funding may be directed towards smaller class sizes, with a student-teacher ratio of 13.8 in 2023-2024. The nearby schools within the South San Antonio ISD also perform poorly on state assessments, suggesting that the district as a whole faces significant challenges in supporting its students' academic success.
