Elementary Schools in Castleberry Independent School District (Isd)


Summary:

The Castleberry Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to three elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. These schools, located in a predominantly Hispanic community, face challenges in academic performance but also showcase some standout achievements.

Among the three schools, Joy James Academy of Leadership stands out with the highest 5th-grade reading proficiency rate at 62.75%, significantly outperforming the district and state averages. This school also boasts the lowest student-teacher ratio of 12.4, suggesting a more personalized learning environment. However, Joy James Academy's 3rd-grade math proficiency rate is the lowest among the three schools at 21.82%. In contrast, A.V. Cato Elementary excels in 4th-grade reading with a proficiency rate of 52.38%, surpassing the district and state, and also has the second-highest 5th-grade math proficiency rate at 50.51%.

Despite these bright spots, the elementary schools within the Castleberry ISD generally perform below the state averages in most STAAR subjects and grade levels, indicating a need for improvement in academic achievement. The high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 87.55% to 91.97%, suggest that the schools serve communities with significant socioeconomic challenges, which may impact their academic performance. The variation in spending per student, from $9,503 at Castleberry Elementary to $12,732 at Joy James Academy, may also contribute to the differences in academic outcomes observed across the district.
