Summary:
The Columbus Independent School District (Isd) in Texas has only one elementary school, Columbus Elementary, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The school has a diverse student population, with a significant portion of students coming from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.
Columbus Elementary's academic performance is a concern, with test scores in reading, math, and science falling below the state averages. The school's 3rd grade reading proficiency rate was 47.62%, compared to the state average of 48.85%, and its 5th grade science proficiency rate was 16.67%, compared to the state average of 26.29%. Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.9, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools, with a 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger.
The high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, at 68.16%, suggests that the school faces significant challenges in addressing the needs of its economically disadvantaged population. These factors, combined with the school's underperforming test scores, indicate that Columbus Elementary has room for improvement in supporting student success and providing a high-quality education for the community it serves.
