Mireles Elementary

Summary:

Mireles Elementary is a public elementary school in Corpus Christi, Texas, serving 611 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Corpus Christi Independent School District (CCISD). This school consistently outperforms the district and state averages on STAAR assessments, particularly in reading, mathematics, and science, and maintains a strong 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mireles Elementary's academic excellence is evident across multiple grade levels and student subgroups. The school's proficiency rates in STAAR Reading and Mathematics are significantly higher than the district and state averages, with 5th-grade students achieving 68.81% proficiency in reading and 63.64% in mathematics, compared to the district's 51.01% and 49.39%, respectively. Mireles also excels in supporting its African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, and low-socioeconomic status student subgroups, often ranking in the top quartile of Texas elementary schools. However, the school's performance for its Asian student subgroup has been more variable.

When compared to nearby schools within the CCISD district, Mireles Elementary stands out as a high-performing institution. Schools like Faye Webb Elementary and Kolda Elementary also demonstrate strong academic performance, but Mireles consistently outperforms the district and state averages. The school's diverse student population and relatively lower percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients may contribute to its ability to effectively support the academic growth of its 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.

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.
