Summary:

Walter Hall Elementary is a public elementary school located in League City, Texas, serving 515 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Clear Creek Independent School District, which is ranked 166 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating.

Walter Hall Elementary consistently ranks in the top 15-20% of Texas elementary schools, with strong academic performance on STAAR tests that exceeds district and state averages, particularly in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade. The school also excels in supporting diverse student groups, including male students, English Language Learners, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

While Walter Hall Elementary outperforms the district and state, nearby schools within the Clear Creek ISD, such as Henry Bauerschlag Elementary and Darwin L. Gilmore Elementary, also demonstrate strong academic performance. However, the school should continue to monitor and address any achievement gaps among its student subgroups to ensure that all students have the opportunity to succeed.

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.
