Jubilee Harlingen

Summary:

Jubilee Harlingen is an alternative public charter school in Harlingen, Texas, serving grades PK-9 with 422 students. The school is part of the Jubilee Academies district, which is ranked 854 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating.

Jubilee Harlingen stands out for its strong performance on STAAR tests, consistently outperforming the Jubilee Academies district average. In 2023-2024, the school's students are expected to perform better than the state average in reading for grades 3-8, as well as in Algebra I and English I End-of-Course exams. However, the school lags behind the state average in mathematics, science, and social studies. Jubilee Harlingen also maintains very low dropout rates, ranging from 0% to 1.5% over the past three school years, despite having a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, between 71.72% and 75.36%.

Interestingly, when compared to Greyhounds Online Academy, a virtual public school in the nearby San Benito Consolidated Independent School District, Jubilee Harlingen outperforms the virtual school in STAAR test scores, particularly in mathematics and science. This suggests that Jubilee Harlingen may have unique strengths or strategies that contribute to its relatively better performance, even though it is part of a lower-performing district overall.

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.
