Clear Lake City Elementary

Summary:

Clear Lake City Elementary is a public elementary school serving 525 students in grades PK-5 in the Clear Creek Independent School District (ISD) in Houston, Texas. The school has consistently earned a 4-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger, thanks to its diverse student population and strong academic performance.

Clear Lake City Elementary stands out for its diverse student body, with a higher percentage of White (40.76%) and Hispanic (38.86%) students compared to nearby schools. The school also excels academically, with 5th-grade students outperforming the state average on STAAR reading tests by over 16 percentage points. This strong performance has helped the school improve its statewide ranking from 1797 out of 4479 Texas elementary schools in 2018-2019 to 974 out of 4675 in 2023-2024. However, not all nearby schools lag behind; Brookwood Elementary, just 2.64 miles away, has a higher statewide ranking and better STAAR test results in some grade levels.

While Clear Lake City Elementary's performance is impressive, the school faces some challenges, including a growing population of economically disadvantaged students, as indicated by the increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch from 42.77% in 2020-2021 to 49.52% in 2022-2023. This trend is consistent with the nearby schools, which also serve a significant number of students from low-income families. Despite these challenges, the school has maintained a relatively low student-teacher ratio, which may contribute to its academic success.

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.
