Iltexas Westpark Elementary

Summary:

Iltexas Westpark Elementary is a public charter elementary school serving grades K-5 in Houston, Texas, with a diverse student population of over 600 students. Despite facing significant socioeconomic challenges, with 87.94% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the school has consistently outperformed the Houston Independent School District and the state of Texas in academic performance.

Iltexas Westpark Elementary's standout performance is particularly evident in its reading and math proficiency rates, which are significantly higher than the district and state averages across multiple grade levels. The school's African American and economically disadvantaged students have shown exceptional results, ranking in the top 15% and top 50% of Texas elementary schools, respectively. However, the school struggles to support its Asian and multi-racial student populations, ranking in the bottom 20% for these subgroups.

When compared to nearby Katy Independent School District schools, Iltexas Westpark Elementary generally underperforms in academic achievement, particularly in math and science. Yet, the school's performance for its African American and economically disadvantaged students is often stronger than the surrounding Katy ISD schools, suggesting that Iltexas Westpark Elementary may be more effective in supporting these student populations. The school's fluctuating ranking and rating, as well as its challenges in supporting certain subgroups, may be linked to declining per-student funding and resource constraints, which will need to be addressed for the school's long-term success.

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.
