Summary:

Uplift Atlas Preparatory - Pri is an elementary public charter school in Dallas, Texas, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 679. The school is part of the Uplift Education district, which is ranked 701 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Uplift Atlas Preparatory - Pri has a significantly higher Hispanic student population (86.89%) compared to nearby schools, which range from 34.29% to 91.3% Hispanic students. The school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally lower than the state and Uplift Education district averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 5th-grade reading proficiency (55.86%) was lower than the state average (53.96%) and the Uplift Education district average (45.22%). However, the school's rankings for specific student groups, such as African American and Special Education students, are higher than its overall ranking, indicating that it is performing relatively better for these subgroups compared to the state.

Uplift Atlas Preparatory - Pri faces some challenges in terms of academic performance, particularly when compared to nearby schools like Ignacio Zaragoza Elementary and James Bowie Elementary, which have higher STAAR test scores and overall school rankings. The school's lower spending per student ($9,762 in 2020-2021) compared to the nearby Dallas ISD schools, which range from $12,981 to $16,461 per student, may be a contributing factor to its relatively lower academic performance. However, the school's focus on serving specific student subgroups, such as African American and Special Education students, is a positive aspect that could be further leveraged to improve overall student outcomes.

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.
