Yeager Elementary

Summary:

Yeager Elementary is a public elementary school in Houston, Texas, serving around 830 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.

Yeager Elementary has a diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic (54.22%) and African American (23.73%) students compared to the district and state averages. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally lower than the district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 3rd-grade reading proficiency rate was 41.58%, compared to the district's 57.62% and the state's 48.85%. The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with White and Gifted and Talented students performing much better than their African American, Hispanic, and economically disadvantaged peers. Yeager Elementary's Gifted and Talented program is a standout, with the school ranking in the top 1% of Texas elementary schools in this category for the 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 school years.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Hancock Elementary in the same district and Brill Elementary in a different district, Yeager Elementary generally underperforms academically, particularly in mathematics and science. However, the school's relatively high spending per student (around $10,500 in 2020-2021) and low student-teacher ratio (around 14:1) suggest that the school is allocating significant resources to support its students, though these investments have not yet translated into consistently strong academic outcomes.

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.
