Summary:
The Accelerated Intermediate Academy district in Texas contains a single elementary school, Accelerated Interdisciplinary Academy, which serves grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 127 students. The school's student population is predominantly Hispanic (56.69%) and African American (41.73%), and a high percentage (87.4%) of students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic disadvantages.
Academically, Accelerated Interdisciplinary Academy has faced challenges, with its STAAR test proficiency rates generally falling below the state average across most grade levels and subject areas. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated, ranging from 3 out of 5 stars in 2021-2022 to 1 out of 5 stars in 2022-2023, suggesting instability or inconsistency in its educational practices and strategies. Despite the school's reasonable resource allocation, with a per-student spending of $7,085 and a student-teacher ratio of 14.3 to 1, the academic performance data indicates that these resources may not be effectively utilized to address the specific needs of the student population.
Overall, Accelerated Interdisciplinary Academy appears to be facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its predominantly minority and economically disadvantaged student population. Further investigation into the school's strategies, interventions, and resource allocation decisions could provide valuable insights to help address these challenges and improve student outcomes.
