Alvin Elementary

Summary:

Alvin Elementary is a public elementary school serving 707 students in grades PK-5 in the Alvin Independent School District in Alvin, Texas. The school has a predominantly Hispanic student population (66.76%), followed by White students (28.43%).

Alvin Elementary faces several key challenges. The school's performance on STAAR tests is generally below the district and state averages across grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, only 48.31% of 3rd-grade students were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to 56.48% in the Alvin ISD and 48.85% statewide. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated, ranging from 2166 out of 4675 schools (2023-2024) to 3441 out of 4581 schools (2021-2022). Alvin Elementary's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Hispanic students generally underperforming compared to their White peers.

Interestingly, Alvin Elementary's performance is lower than that of nearby schools within the Alvin ISD, such as Mark Twain Elementary, Walt Disney Elementary, and Bob and Betty Nelson Elementary, which tend to have higher percentages of students proficient or better in Reading and Mathematics, as well as higher overall statewide rankings. Additionally, Alvin Elementary has a high percentage of students (over 75%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population, which may be contributing to the school's overall lower performance.

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.
