Savannah Lakes Elementary

Summary:

Savannah Lakes Elementary is a public elementary school in Rosharon, Texas, serving grades PK-5 and part of the Alvin Independent School District. While the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking in recent years, it faces several challenges, including lower overall student performance, particularly in mathematics, and significant achievement gaps among its diverse student population.

Savannah Lakes has a significantly higher percentage of African American students (52.66%) compared to the state average, as well as a lower percentage of White students (7.29%) and Asian students (5.93%). Student performance on STAAR tests is generally below the district and state averages, with only 39.17% of 3rd graders, 31.9% of 4th graders, and 18.69% of 5th graders proficient or better in STAAR Mathematics, compared to the district averages of 46.65%, 49.88%, and 34.6%, respectively. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with African American students performing relatively well, but Asian, multi-racial, special education, and English Language Learner students struggling.

However, Savannah Lakes has shown exceptional performance in its Gifted and Talented program, ranking in the top 1% of Texas elementary schools in 2021-2022, and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, which may contribute to its ability to serve its high-achieving students effectively. Compared to nearby schools in the Alvin ISD, such as Glenn York Elementary, Laura Ingalls Wilder Elementary, and Shirley Dill Brothers Elementary, Savannah Lakes' performance is generally lower, suggesting the school may need additional support and strategies to improve outcomes for its diverse student population.

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.

Open Quote My son loves going to school everyday. His teacher really cares about him. The Principal is always visible and available. He attends all PTO meetings, after school events and sometimes he holds the door open and greets the kids as they arrive at school in the morning. The PTO is awesome and is always coming up with ideas to assist the teachers and admins. Close Quote

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.
