Summary

Wake Village Elementary in Wake Village, TX, serves 539 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Texarkana Independent School District (Isd), with over 86% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, reflecting a high level of economic disadvantage in the community.

Wake Village Elementary stands out for its remarkable "5th Grade Bounce," where students consistently achieve significantly higher proficiency in math and reading compared to district and state averages. For example, in the 2025-2026 school year, 5th graders scored 61.76% proficient in math, far exceeding the district's 30.79% and the state's 47.38%. This pattern is not seen at nearby schools like Nash Elementary or Waggoner Creek Elementary, suggesting effective instructional strategies at Wake Village. The school also excels in serving its Hispanic students, who ranked in the 68th percentile statewide in 2025-2026, a notable strength compared to peers. However, 5th-grade science scores remain a persistent weakness, consistently below state averages, indicating a need for more focused science instruction.

Wake Village is a beacon of stability in a challenging local landscape, outperforming highly disadvantaged schools like Westlawn Elementary and Highland Park Elementary by a wide margin, despite similar poverty rates. It also uses its resources effectively, spending $10,835 per student—less than Westlawn's $13,496—yet achieving far better results. While it cannot match the top scores of nearby Margaret Fischer Davis Elementary in the more affluent Pleasant Grove Independent School District (Isd), Wake Village provides a solid, middle-ground option for families seeking a school that delivers strong results despite significant challenges.
