Winfree Academy North Richland Hills

Summary:

Winfree Academy North Richland Hills is a public charter high school serving grades 9-12 in North Richland Hills, Texas, with a student population of 247. Despite its diverse student body, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Texas high schools over the past decade, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school's academic performance is concerning, with low graduation rates ranging from 27.6% to 45.9%, relatively high dropout rates between 6.9% and 11.0%, and significantly lower STAAR EOC proficiency rates compared to state and district averages. The school's subgroups, including African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students, also consistently rank in the bottom 10-20% of their respective subgroups statewide, indicating significant achievement gaps. Interestingly, Winfree Academy North Richland Hills performs significantly worse than the nearby public high schools, such as Bell High School, Birdville High School, and Richland High School, which all have higher statewide rankings, graduation rates, and test scores.

The school's declining spending per student, from $7,618 in 2019-2020 to $5,867 in 2020-2021, and relatively high student-teacher ratio, ranging from 26.5 to 33.8 over the past three years, may be contributing to the school's poor academic performance. To improve student outcomes, the school and its parent Hurst-Euless-Bedford Independent School District (Isd) should consider implementing targeted interventions, increasing resources and support, and exploring strategies to better meet the needs of its diverse 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.
