Charles Rice Learning Center

Summary:

Charles Rice Learning Center is an elementary school in Dallas, Texas, serving 433 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Dallas Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 557 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating.

Charles Rice Learning Center has a predominantly African American student population, ranging from 80.83% to 83.48% over the past 3 years, with a growing Hispanic population of 16.4%. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated, from a 4-star rating in 2017-2018 to a 2-star rating in 2020-2021. While the school performs relatively well for African American and Hispanic students, it struggles with Special Education and Gifted and Talented student groups, ranking in the bottom 1000 Texas elementary schools for these subgroups. However, the school's STAAR test scores are generally higher than the Dallas ISD and Texas state averages, particularly in 3rd and 5th grade reading and math.

Compared to nearby schools in the same district, such as Ascher Silberstein Elementary and Oran M Roberts Elementary, Charles Rice Learning Center generally outperforms them on STAAR test scores. The school also has a higher per-student spending of $13,271 in 2020-2021, compared to the nearby district schools, which range from $11,619 to $15,943 for the same year. However, the school faces challenges in supporting its high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with over 96% of its students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

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.
