Armando Chapa Middle

Summary:

Armando Chapa Middle is a public middle school located in Kyle, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 668 students. The school is part of the Hays Consolidated Independent School District, which is ranked 456 out of 968 school districts in Texas and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Armando Chapa Middle faces several challenges, including a predominantly Hispanic (73.95%) and low-income (65.12% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch) student population. The school's academic performance is generally lower than nearby schools within the Hays Consolidated Independent School District, such as Eric Dahlstrom Middle, D J Red Simon Middle, Laura B Wallace Middle, and R C Barton Middle, which have higher rankings, better test scores, and lower percentages of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

However, Armando Chapa Middle has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.8, and its dropout rates have been relatively low, ranging from 0.0% to 0.7% over the past few years. The school's performance on STAAR tests varies significantly among different student subgroups, with White and Gifted and Talented students performing relatively better than Hispanic, African American, and English Language Learner students. To address these challenges, the school and district may need to focus on targeted interventions, professional development for teachers, and strategies to support the unique needs of the student population.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
