Summary:
Draw Academy is the sole public charter elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Houston, Texas, with a total enrollment of 678 students. The school's academic performance is consistently low, ranking in the bottom 10% of Texas elementary schools, despite spending more per student and having a higher student-teacher ratio than the state average.
Draw Academy's student population is highly diverse, with 98.67% of students identifying as Hispanic, 1.03% as Asian, and 0.29% as White. Additionally, 100% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. While the school has a 0.0% dropout rate, which is better than the state average, its academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is significantly below the state average across all grade levels and subject areas.
Compared to other schools in Texas, Draw Academy appears to be an underperforming school that may be struggling to effectively educate its diverse, economically disadvantaged student population. The school's higher spending and student-teacher ratio suggest that additional resources and targeted interventions may be needed to improve student learning and achievement within the Draw Academy district.
