Despite serving a relatively low-income student population, with around 65% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Como-Pickton School stands out for its consistently high 4-year graduation rates, ranging from 97.8% to 100% over the past 5 years, and its very low dropout rate of 0% for the past 4 years.

Interestingly, the school's per-student spending has increased from $10,307 in 2018-2019 to $11,517 in 2020-2021, which is higher than the state average, and its student-teacher ratio of around 11.5 is slightly lower than the state average.

When compared to the nearby Saltillo School, which is part of the Saltillo Independent School District (Isd), Como-Pickton School has significantly lower test scores, particularly in reading and math, as well as a lower 4-year graduation rate and a higher percentage of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch.

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.
