Summary:

KIPP Somos Collegiate is a public charter high school in San Antonio, Texas, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 395 students. The school is part of the San Antonio Independent School District (Isd), which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While KIPP Somos Collegiate serves a predominantly Hispanic student population (90.38%), its academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally lower than the state and KIPP Texas Public Schools district averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the percentage of 7th-grade students proficient or better in STAAR Reading was 26.92% at KIPP Somos Collegiate, compared to 44.59% for the KIPP Texas Public Schools district and 52.08% for the state. The school's performance in STAAR Mathematics and STAAR EOC exams, such as Algebra I and English I/II Reading, is also below the district and state averages.

Compared to nearby charter schools like Great Hearts Monte Vista North, which ranked 366 out of 1,987 Texas high schools in 2023-2024, KIPP Somos Collegiate ranked 1,298 out of 1,987. The school also has a higher dropout rate, increasing from 0.8% in 2019-2020 to 3.9% in 2021-2022, which is significantly higher than the state's average. To address these challenges, the school and district should consider implementing targeted academic interventions, closely monitoring student subgroup performance, and exploring opportunities for collaboration with higher-performing nearby schools.

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.
