Reed Elementary

Summary:

Reed Elementary is a public elementary school in Houston, Texas, serving 815 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District (CFISD). The school has a significantly higher Hispanic student population (74.6%) compared to the state average, as well as a higher Asian student population (10.43%).

Academically, Reed Elementary excels in reading, with proficiency rates in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades exceeding the CFISD and Texas state averages. However, the school struggles in mathematics, with proficiency rates below the district and state. Additionally, the 5th-grade science proficiency rate is concerningly low at just 15.52%. While the school's Gifted and Talented students and At-Risk students perform well, the English Language Learner (ELL) and White student populations lag behind their peers statewide.

Compared to nearby schools in the CFISD district, Reed Elementary generally performs on par or slightly below in academic proficiency. The school's high percentage of low-income students, over 80% of whom qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, may contribute to the academic challenges it faces. Despite increased per-student spending in recent years, the school's statewide ranking has steadily declined, suggesting the need to address achievement gaps and ensure equitable educational opportunities for all 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.
