Summary:

The school is part of the Community Independent School District, which is ranked 534 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While John & Barbara Roderick Elementary outperformed the district and state averages in 3rd grade reading, its performance in 4th and 5th grade reading, as well as math and science across all grades, was below the district and state averages. For example, in 5th grade math, only 22.45% of students were proficient or better, compared to 38.66% for the district and 48.96% for the state. The school also has a relatively high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at 51.47%, which is higher than the nearby schools and the state average, suggesting a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Anita Scott Elementary, McClendon Elementary, and Davis Elementary, John & Barbara Roderick Elementary's performance is generally lower, with these nearby schools tending to have higher test scores, lower free and reduced-price lunch rates, and higher statewide rankings. However, the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.3 could be an advantage in implementing more personalized learning strategies and targeted support for struggling students.

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.

2023	678	44.3	15.3	51.5

Data source: National Center for Education Statistics, U.S. Dept of Education.

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.
