Trinity Basin Preparatory

Summary:

Trinity Basin Preparatory is a large public charter elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Fort Worth, Texas, with a student population of 2,016. The school has a predominantly Hispanic student body, making up 81.1% of the student population, as well as significant African American (9.23%), Asian (5.51%), and White (3.32%) representation.

Despite its size, Trinity Basin Preparatory consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with academic performance significantly below the state average across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 30.56% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to the state average of 48.85%. The school's performance is particularly low for Asian and African American student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 10-20% of Texas elementary schools. This academic challenge may be exacerbated by the school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (over 90% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch) and a relatively high student-teacher ratio ranging from 14.9 to 17.8 students per teacher.

In comparison, the nearby schools in the Fort Worth Independent School District generally perform better academically, with higher proficiency rates on STAAR assessments and higher overall rankings. For instance, Worth Heights Elementary, located just 0.47 miles away, has significantly higher proficiency rates in reading and math, and is ranked much higher (2649 out of 4675) than Trinity Basin Preparatory. The nearby schools also have lower percentages of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a less economically disadvantaged 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.
