Mead Elementary

Mead Elementary serves a west-central San Antonio neighborhood where families tend to be deeply rooted in the community, but the school faces some real academic headwinds — its scores place it near the bottom of the state in English and Math. Families in the 78229 zip code have access to a dense, urban part of San Antonio close to the South Texas Medical Center, with all the convenience that brings, but those prioritizing strong test performance may want to explore other options within Northside ISD. It could be a good fit for families who value proximity and community ties over academic rankings, and who are willing to engage closely with the school to support their child's learning.
