Carroll Elementary

Summary:

Carroll Elementary is a public elementary school located in Houston, Texas, serving grades 1-5 with a total enrollment of 625 students. The school is part of the Aldine Independent School District, which is ranked 790 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Carroll Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's performance on STAAR tests is significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 20.25% of 3rd-grade students proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to the state average of 48.85% and the district average of 31.37%. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as Hispanic students, English Language Learners, and students with special education needs, who consistently rank in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools. This persistent underperformance of specific student populations is a concerning trend that warrants further investigation and targeted interventions.

The high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Carroll Elementary, with 95.2% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, likely contributes to the school's academic challenges. While the school's spending per student has increased over the years, it is still below the state average and may not be sufficient to address the unique needs of the student population. Interestingly, some nearby schools in the Houston Independent School District, such as Durkee Elementary and Moreno Elementary, demonstrate higher academic performance, suggesting that factors beyond just district affiliation may be at play.

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.
