School Overview

Tucked along the Rio Grande in the small border city of Roma, Saenz Elementary punches well above its weight — ranking in the 99th percentile in both math and science makes it one of the most academically impressive elementary schools in all of Texas. Families in this tight-knit, predominantly Hispanic community will find a school that clearly sets high expectations for its students without losing the close, personal feel that smaller South Texas towns are known for. For parents who want rigorous academics in a community-rooted environment, Saenz is the kind of hidden gem that makes Roma worth a second look.
