Summary:
The Jacksonville Independent School District (Isd) in Texas is home to 4 elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. These schools face socioeconomic challenges, with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 76.91% to 95.79%. While the schools have similar spending per student and student-teacher ratios, their academic performance varies significantly.
Joe Wright Elementary stands out for its strong 3rd grade STAAR Reading and Math proficiency, outperforming the district and state averages. However, the school's overall performance is mixed, with lower proficiency rates in 4th grade STAAR Reading and Math compared to the district and state. In contrast, East Side Elementary has the highest SchoolDigger rating of 3 stars and performed better than the district and state in 4th grade STAAR Reading.
The data reveals significant performance disparities among the elementary schools in the Jacksonville ISD. While some schools, like Joe Wright Elementary and West Side Elementary, struggle to meet academic benchmarks, others, such as East Side Elementary, demonstrate stronger performance. Addressing these disparities and providing targeted support to the lower-performing schools could help improve overall academic outcomes for students in the district.
