Summary:

The 16 elementary schools in zip code 78852, all part of the Eagle Pass Independent School District (Isd), serve students from Pre-Kindergarten through 6th grade, with four dedicated early childhood centers and 12 standard elementary schools.

Two schools stand out as top performers: Liberty Elementary and Armando Cerna Elementary. Liberty Elementary is the highest-ranked school in the area, earning a 5-star rating and consistently scoring in the top 20% of Texas elementary schools, with 5th-grade reading and math proficiency rates far exceeding state averages. Armando Cerna Elementary has maintained a 4-star rating for three consecutive years, with 5th-grade math proficiency (75.29%) ranking second-highest in the area. In contrast, Juan N. Seguin Elementary faces the greatest challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom 20% of Texas schools and having the highest percentage of students receiving free/reduced lunch at 93.49%. Henry B. Gonzalez Elementary shows the most dramatic improvement, climbing from the bottom 8% of Texas schools to the 37th percentile over three years.

Key metrics reveal that the average free/reduced lunch rate across standard elementary schools is 81.5%, with Liberty Elementary having the lowest rate (53.62%) and Juan N. Seguin the highest. Per-student spending averages $10,169, but higher spending does not guarantee better results—Benavides Heights Elementary spends the most ($11,433) yet ranks among the lowest (25th percentile), while Ray H. Darr Elementary spends the least ($8,940) and ranks significantly higher (58th percentile). The student-to-teacher ratio averages 17.9:1, with Seco Mines Elementary having the smallest classes (15.2:1). A notable finding is that 5th-grade science scores are universally the weakest subject across all schools, even at top-performing Liberty Elementary, suggesting a district-wide need for curriculum improvement in science.
