Summary:
Beatrice Mayes Institute Charter School is the sole school in the Beatrice Mayes Institute Charter School District, serving grades K-8 in Houston, Texas. With a total enrollment of 497 students, the school stands out for its high percentage of African American students (97.18%) and its relatively low academic performance compared to state averages.
Despite the school's high spending per student of $9,960, its test scores on the STAAR assessments are generally below the state averages, particularly in mathematics and science. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 3rd grade math proficiency rate was 35.71% compared to the state average of 40.86%. Additionally, the school has been ranked between 2922 and 3411 out of around 4,600 Texas elementary schools over the past few years and has received a 1 or 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger.
The school's high percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients (73.84%) and low school ranking and rating may indicate that it is serving a population of students with significant socioeconomic and educational challenges. Addressing these challenges and improving the school's academic performance could be a key focus for the Beatrice Mayes Institute Charter School District.
