South Waco Elementary

South Waco Elementary serves a tight-knit community in one of Waco's more established southside neighborhoods, not far from the Brazos River and the city's growing downtown corridor. Families here are deeply rooted in the area, but the school faces significant academic challenges, with test scores that trail most schools across the state in English, math, and science. Families who prioritize academics may want to explore additional support options or look closely at the district's magnet and school choice programs alongside enrollment here.
