Crosby Crossroads Academy

Summary:

Crosby Crossroads Academy is a small public high school in Crosby, Texas, serving just 27 students in grades 9-12. Despite its diversity, the school consistently ranks among the lowest-performing high schools in the state, with concerning academic metrics and high poverty rates.

Crosby Crossroads Academy's student population is more racially diverse than the nearby Crosby High School, with a mix of White (37.04%), African American (18.52%), and Hispanic (44.44%) students. However, the school struggles academically, with proficiency rates well below district and state averages on STAAR exams. Its graduation rates have fluctuated between 79.1% and 90.8%, and its dropout rate has ranged from 3.2% to 14% in recent years - significantly worse than the 95.4% graduation rate and 0.7% dropout rate at Crosby High School.

Crosby Crossroads Academy's high poverty rate, with 62.96% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, is another factor that may contribute to its underperformance. The school's small size, racial diversity, and socioeconomic challenges suggest that students at Crosby Crossroads Academy face unique obstacles that are not being adequately addressed. Targeted interventions and additional resources will be crucial to improving academic outcomes and ensuring equity for all students in the Crosby Independent School District.

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.
