Ignite Community School - Beaumont

Summary:

Ignite Community School - Beaumont is a public charter elementary school serving grades PK-6 in Beaumont, Texas, with a predominantly African American student population of 73.15%. Despite spending more per student than the surrounding Beaumont Independent School District (Isd), the school has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools and struggles with significantly below-average academic performance on STAAR tests.

Ignite Community School - Beaumont's academic performance has declined over the years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 1993 (2018-2019) to 4243 (2023-2024) out of around 4,600 Texas elementary schools. The school's STAAR test scores are consistently well below the state and district averages, particularly for African American and low socioeconomic status students. This demographic profile likely contributes to the school's academic struggles, as research has shown that students from these backgrounds often face additional barriers to educational success.

Despite the school's higher per-student spending and relatively low student-teacher ratio compared to the surrounding Beaumont Independent School District (Isd) schools, Ignite Community School - Beaumont has not been able to translate this into improved academic outcomes for its students. This suggests that the school may be facing challenges in effectively allocating and utilizing its resources to support student learning and achievement.

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.
