Summary

Medio Creek Elementary is a PK-5 school in San Antonio, TX, serving 684 students within the Southwest Independent School District (Isd), where nearly 88% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, reflecting a high-poverty community. The school currently holds a 1-star rating and ranks in the 26th percentile for the 2025-2026 school year, a decline from a 3-star rating and 58th percentile in 2016-2017, with a notable drop in recent years.

Despite these challenges, Medio Creek shows clear pockets of strength. It is a standout for its African American students, ranking in the 77th percentile (4 stars) in the most recent year, a dramatic improvement from the 37th percentile just one year prior. The school also has a history of strong support for English Language Learners, earning 4-star ratings in the 82nd and 80th percentiles in 2022-2023 and 2023-2024. However, a critical weakness is its Special Education program, which ranked in the 4th percentile (0 stars) in 2024-2025, making it the lowest-performing subgroup. Compared to nearby Lackland Elementary, just 2.9 miles away, which serves a military base population with only 14% of students on free/reduced lunch and ranks in the 72nd percentile (4 stars), the contrast highlights how socioeconomic factors heavily influence academic outcomes.

Interesting patterns emerge in test scores: students taking Spanish-language STAAR tests often outperformed their English-testing peers, especially in Math and Science, suggesting the bilingual program is a valuable asset. Grade-level performance is inconsistent, with 4th-grade Reading (29.03%) falling 24 points below the state average, while 3rd and 5th grades perform closer to district norms. The school’s leadership can build on its proven success with African American and ELL students to address the urgent need for improvement in Special Education and overall consistency.
