Summary:

Southwest Elementary faces significant challenges, including a significantly higher Hispanic student population (69.4%) compared to nearby schools, consistently underperforming on STAAR tests across all grade levels and subjects, and ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools over the past 10 years. The school struggles to support the academic achievement of its student subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, English Language Learners, and Special Education students, all of whom rank in the bottom quartile of their respective subgroups statewide. Additionally, Southwest Elementary has an exceptionally high rate of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, ranging from 86.28% to 89.58% over the past 3 years, indicating a high concentration of economically disadvantaged students.

When compared to nearby schools in the Belton Independent School District, such as Joe M Pirtle Elementary, Cater Elementary, and Lakewood Elementary, it becomes clear that Southwest Elementary is an outlier in terms of academic performance, school ranking, and student demographics. Addressing these challenges will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach that considers the school's unique context and the needs of its community.

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.
