Lieder Elementary

Summary:

Lieder Elementary is a public elementary school in Houston, Texas, serving 822 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District (CFISD), which is ranked 363 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lieder Elementary faces significant challenges due to its high percentage of economically disadvantaged and minority students. The school has a much higher Hispanic student population (73.84%) compared to the state average, and a lower percentage of White (5.35%) and Asian (6.45%) students. Academically, Lieder Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past two years. The school's performance on STAAR assessments is below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. However, the school's performance varies by student subgroup, with African American and White students performing better than Hispanic and English Language Learner students.

Compared to nearby schools, Lieder Elementary's performance is generally lower than that of Holmsley Elementary and McFee Elementary, both within the CFISD district. However, Lieder performs better than some other nearby schools, such as Tipps Elementary and Metcalf Elementary. Additionally, the nearby Harmony School of Achievement - Houston, a public charter school, outperforms Lieder Elementary on STAAR assessments across all grade levels and subject areas.

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.
