Fannin Elementary

Summary:

Fannin Elementary is a public elementary school in Bryan, Texas, serving 386 students in grades PK-4. The school is part of the Bryan Independent School District, which is ranked 626 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating.

Fannin Elementary faces significant challenges, with a student population that is 71.5% Hispanic, significantly higher than the surrounding schools. The school consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Its academic performance on STAAR tests is well below the state and district averages, particularly in mathematics. Additionally, over 93% of Fannin's students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. Despite spending significantly more per student ($11,230 in 2020-2021) than the state average, the school has not shown significant improvement in its academic performance over the past several years.

Interestingly, nearby schools within the Bryan ISD, such as Kemp-Carver Elementary and Sul Ross Elementary, generally perform better than Fannin Elementary on academic measures, despite serving similar student populations. This suggests that factors beyond just student demographics may be contributing to Fannin's underperformance. The school's significant population of English Language Learners may also present unique challenges in terms of instructional strategies and support, as their performance data is not as strong as for other subgroups.

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.
