Cedar Creek Middle

Summary:

Cedar Creek Middle is a public middle school located in Cedar Creek, Texas, serving grades 7-8 with a total enrollment of 1,040 students. The school is part of the Bastrop Independent School District, which is ranked 824 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Cedar Creek Middle faces significant academic challenges, with consistently low performance on state assessments and a student population that is predominantly Hispanic (86.73%) and economically disadvantaged (90.48% eligible for free or reduced-price lunch). The school's performance on STAAR assessments is well below the state and district averages across all subjects and grade levels, ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas middle schools. Interestingly, the school's academic struggles are not shared by all schools in the Bastrop ISD, as nearby schools like Bastrop Intermediate, Bastrop Middle, and Cedar Creek Intermediate perform significantly better.

Despite the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, Cedar Creek Middle's per-student spending is comparable to the nearby Bastrop ISD schools, suggesting that funding alone may not be the primary driver of the school's academic challenges. The school's struggles are particularly pronounced for Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Special Education student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 10-20% of Texas middle schools for these groups. Targeted interventions and support may be needed to address the unique needs of the Cedar Creek Middle community and improve student outcomes.

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.
