Ruben Hinojosa Elementary

Mercedes is a small, tight-knit city in the heart of the Rio Grande Valley, where community ties run deep and families tend to know their neighbors by name. Ruben Hinojosa Elementary sits in the middle of that close community feel, with math and science scores that show some genuine strength even as English skills remain an area of growth. Families who are rooted in the Valley and value a school that reflects their community's culture will find a familiar, welcoming environment here.
