Blooming Grove Elementary

Summary:

Blooming Grove Elementary is a public elementary school serving 428 students in grades PK-5 in the Blooming Grove Independent School District (ISD) in Texas. The school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally below the state average across grade levels and subject areas, with proficiency rates around 30% in reading and math for 3rd and 4th grades, compared to the state averages of around 50%. Blooming Grove Elementary's performance is also below the district average, indicating that it is one of the lower-performing schools within the Blooming Grove ISD.

The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with male students performing relatively well but female students, Hispanic students, English Language Learners, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds performing much worse. For example, while male students rank in the top 40% of Texas elementary schools, female students and Hispanic students rank in the bottom 20-25%, and students from low-income families rank in the bottom 15%. This suggests that Blooming Grove Elementary may need to focus on targeted interventions and support for these underperforming groups.

Compared to nearby schools, Blooming Grove Elementary's performance is generally lower than that of schools in the Ennis ISD and Corsicana ISD, which tend to have higher STAAR proficiency rates and better overall rankings. For instance, Sam Houston Elementary in Corsicana ISD outperforms Blooming Grove Elementary across multiple grade levels and subject areas. The nearby Malone Elementary, which is part of the Malone ISD, also struggles with academic performance, ranking in the bottom 15% of Texas elementary schools.

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.
