Beverly Cheatham Elementary

Summary:

Beverly Cheatham Elementary is a public elementary school in Allen, Texas, serving 804 students in grades K-6 and part of the highly-ranked Allen Independent School District.

Beverly Cheatham Elementary is an exceptional school, consistently ranking among the top elementary schools in Texas with a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's diverse student population, with a significant Asian student representation, achieves exceptional academic performance, significantly outpacing state and district averages on STAAR assessments across all grade levels and subject areas. The school's performance is particularly noteworthy for its ability to support the success of various student subgroups, including those from disadvantaged backgrounds. While other nearby schools in the Allen ISD also perform well, Beverly Cheatham Elementary stands out as the top-performing school in the district, with significantly higher test scores and statewide rankings compared to its peers, such as James And Margie Marion Elementary and Gene M Reed Elementary.

The school's exceptional and sustained academic performance over the past decade is a testament to its effective teaching practices and support systems. However, the school's relatively low percentage of Hispanic and African American students, as well as the slightly lower performance of its multi-racial and low-socioeconomic status students, could be areas for the school to focus on and address to ensure equitable outcomes for all students. Overall, Beverly Cheatham Elementary is a model of excellence, serving as an inspiration for other elementary schools in the region and the state.

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.
