Beatrice Mayes Institute Charter School

Summary:

Beatrice Mayes Institute Charter School is an elementary school serving grades K-8 in Houston, Texas, with a predominantly African American student population of over 97%. The school is part of the Houston Independent School District, which is ranked 507 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Beatrice Mayes Institute Charter School faces significant challenges in terms of academic performance, particularly for its predominantly African American student population and students from low-income backgrounds. The school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally lower than the state and district averages across most grade levels and subjects, with its 3rd grade reading proficiency rate at 37.5% compared to the state average of 48.85%. The school's rankings for specific student groups, such as female students, male students, and special education students, are particularly low, suggesting a need to address the needs of these subgroups. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has declined from 4 stars in 2015-2016 to 1 star in 2022-2023, indicating a concerning trend in academic performance.

Interestingly, Beatrice Mayes Institute Charter School's academic performance is generally lower than the nearby public schools, such as Lockhart Elementary, Brookline Elementary, and Thompson Elementary, which have higher STAAR test scores and better overall rankings. The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Beatrice Mayes Institute Charter School and the surrounding schools suggests that the school community faces significant socioeconomic challenges that may impact academic 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.
