McDermott Elementary

McDermott Elementary sits in the busy northwest San Antonio corridor near Loop 1604, a part of the city that's grown rapidly with young families drawn to its convenience and sprawl of newer neighborhoods. As part of Northside ISD — one of the largest districts in Texas — the school faces some real academic headwinds, with test scores that lag behind much of the state in English, math, and science. Families considering this school may want to ask questions about classroom support and enrichment opportunities, and explore what additional resources are available through the district to help students reach their potential.
