The Varnett Public School


Summary:

The Varnett Public School district in Texas operates three elementary schools: Varnett Charter School, The Varnett School - Northeast, and The Varnett School - East. These schools serve a predominantly low-income population, with all three having over 97% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.

Among the three schools, The Varnett School - East stands out as the highest-ranked in the state, though it still ranks in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools. This school has the lowest student-teacher ratio and the highest percentage of Hispanic students. Varnett Charter School, on the other hand, has the highest spending per student and the largest percentage of African American students.

Overall, the The Varnett Public School district is struggling, with all three schools performing below the state average on standardized tests and receiving low rankings and ratings. However, there are some bright spots, such as Varnett Charter School's higher proficiency rates in 8th-grade reading and math, and The Varnett School - East's stronger performance in 5th-grade reading and 4th-grade math. These pockets of success could provide insights into effective teaching practices that could be replicated across the district.
