Best Middle Schools in Zip Code 78541

Summary:

In zip code 78541, there is one middle school, Elias Longoria Senior Middle, serving grades 6 through 8 in Edinburg, Texas, as part of the Edinburg Consolidated Independent School District.

This school stands out for its exceptional advanced coursework program, with 100% of students taking Algebra I and English I End-of-Course exams scoring proficient in both 2024-2025 and 2025-2026—far exceeding district and state averages. However, the general student body shows a stark contrast: standard 7th-grade math proficiency is very low at 19.91% in 2025-2026, while 8th-grade math is a major strength at 62.41%, outperforming the state average by 15 points. The school has improved its state ranking from the 44th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 53rd percentile in 2025-2026, earning a 3-star rating. With a favorable student-teacher ratio of 12.1:1 and a 0% dropout rate, the school effectively keeps students engaged despite serving a population where over 80% are economically disadvantaged.

Key areas of concern include a significant decline in 7th-grade reading proficiency, dropping from 58.02% in 2024-2025 to 43.33% in 2025-2026, and consistently low 8th-grade Social Studies scores at 27.41% proficiency in 2025-2026, trailing the state average. Spending per student is $13,009, and total enrollment is 770 students. Overall, Elias Longoria Senior Middle excels in advanced academics and 8th-grade math but faces challenges in bringing the majority of students to grade-level proficiency in reading and social studies.
