Summary:
The 78059 zip code area is home to 4 schools in the Natalia Independent School District (ISD), including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the district as a whole faces challenges in academic performance, with proficiency rates often lagging behind state averages, there are some standout schools that are worth highlighting.
Natalia High School stands out with a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 95.5% and a low dropout rate of 0.6% in the 2022-2023 school year. The school also performs better than the district and state averages on several STAAR end-of-course exams, particularly in U.S. History. Similarly, Natalia J H (Middle School) outperforms the district and state averages on STAAR Reading tests for 6th and 8th grade, and has a relatively high proficiency rate of 55.56% on the Algebra I end-of-course exam.
However, the data also reveals significant challenges facing the district, particularly at the elementary school level. Natalia Elementary has particularly low proficiency rates, with only 32% proficient or better in 3rd grade reading and 14.71% in 3rd grade math. This suggests a need for targeted interventions and support to address the achievement gaps and ensure all students in the Natalia ISD have the opportunity to succeed.
