Idea Yukon College Preparatory

Summary:

Idea Yukon College Preparatory is a public charter middle school in Odessa, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with 244 students. The school is part of the Ector County Independent School District, which is ranked 455 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 3-star rating.

Idea Yukon College Preparatory stands out for its strong academic performance, particularly for traditionally underserved student subgroups. The school outperforms the Idea Public Schools district and the state of Texas in several key areas, including 7th grade reading proficiency, 6th grade math proficiency, and biology end-of-course exams. Notably, the school ranks in the top 25% of Texas middle schools for African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Low Socio-Economic Status students. However, the school has a higher student-teacher ratio of 25.4 compared to nearby Goddard J H, San Jacinto J H, and other local public schools, which range from 13.2 to 18.5 students per teacher.

Idea Yukon College Preparatory has maintained a consistent 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past two school years, ranking in the top 387 and 646 middle schools in Texas, respectively. This high performance is particularly noteworthy given the school's higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students (57.79%) compared to nearby public schools. While the school excels in many academic areas, it may have opportunities for improvement in Social Studies and Algebra I end-of-course assessments. Overall, Idea Yukon College Preparatory is a high-performing charter school that is effectively serving a diverse student population in Odessa, Texas.

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.
