Bassetti Elementary

Summary:

Bassetti Elementary is a public elementary school in Abilene, Texas, serving 553 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Abilene Independent School District, which is ranked 676 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bassetti Elementary has a more diverse student population compared to nearby schools, with a higher percentage of Hispanic (36.71%) and African American (15.01%) students. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally lower than the Abilene ISD and Texas state averages across various grade levels and subjects, particularly in mathematics. The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with relatively strong results for African American students but significantly below-average outcomes for Hispanic and White students, as well as English Language Learners and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

Despite having a higher per-student spending level and a lower student-teacher ratio than nearby schools, Bassetti Elementary's statewide ranking has declined over the past several years, from 2,042 out of 4,359 Texas elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 3,856 out of 4,647 in 2022-2023. This trend, combined with the school's high percentage of students from low-income families (73.96%), suggests that Bassetti Elementary faces significant challenges and may benefit from targeted interventions and support, particularly in the areas of mathematics and for its Hispanic and White student subgroups. Compared to nearby schools like Wylie West Intermediate and Stafford Elementary, Bassetti Elementary generally performs worse academically, though it does show relative strength in supporting its African American students.

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.
