Eastridge Elementary

Summary:

Eastridge Elementary is a public elementary school in Amarillo, Texas, serving 596 students in grades PK-5. The school stands out for its unique racial makeup, with a significantly higher percentage of Asian students compared to the surrounding area, as well as its mixed academic performance and high percentage of economically disadvantaged students.

Eastridge Elementary has a diverse student population, with 41.11% Asian, 21.48% Hispanic, and only 6.21% White students. While the school's Asian students generally perform well academically, they rank in the bottom 10% of Texas elementary schools, suggesting the school may not be effectively serving this population. Eastridge's academic performance is inconsistent, with some grades and subjects performing better than the Amarillo Independent School District (ISD) and state averages, while others lag behind. The school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (93.79%) likely contributes to these academic challenges.

When compared to nearby schools in the Amarillo ISD, Eastridge generally performs better than lower-performing schools like Hamlet Elementary, but lags behind higher-performing schools like Sunrise Elementary. This suggests that Eastridge has room for improvement, but may also be facing unique challenges that the other schools do not. Targeted interventions and support services could help address the school's academic inconsistencies and better serve 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 Our daughter never brought home books to read for her grade level, and our son needed speech therapy and all they could say is wait until his 2 front teeth grow in. Why not just do what the kids need and what would be best for them. I was very disappointed last year. 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.
