North East Stem Academy

Summary:

North East Stem Academy is a public charter middle school in Houston, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 57 students. The school has a diverse student population, with 80.7% Hispanic, 17.54% African American, and 1.75% White students.

North East Stem Academy faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. The school's student performance on STAAR tests is significantly lower than the state and district averages, with only 27.27% of 6th-grade students proficient or better in STAAR Reading and 22.22% in STAAR Mathematics, compared to 54.45% and 37.1% statewide, respectively. The school's performance also varies greatly among different student groups, ranking 1531 out of 2241 Texas middle schools for female students but 2135 out of 2245 for male students. Additionally, North East Stem Academy has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 87.72%, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

When compared to nearby schools in the Aldine Independent School District and Houston Independent School District, North East Stem Academy performs significantly worse on STAAR tests, with lower proficiency rates in both reading and mathematics. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's 8th-grade STAAR Reading proficiency rate was 43.48%, compared to 54.09% statewide and 49.36% for the Raul Yzaguirre Schools for Success district. This suggests that the school is struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students, despite its small size and low student-teacher ratio.

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.
