Summary:

Danbury Elementary is a public elementary school located in Danbury, Texas, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 325. The school is part of the Angleton Independent School District, which is ranked 224 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Danbury Elementary stands out for its strong academic performance, with students generally scoring better than the state average on STAAR Reading, Mathematics, and Science assessments across grades 3-5. For example, in 2023-2024, 61.11% of 5th-grade students at Danbury Elementary were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to the state average of 53.96%. The school also has a lower student-teacher ratio (11.6 in 2022-2023) and higher per-student spending ($11,620 in 2020-2021) compared to nearby schools like Frontier Elementary and Rancho Isabella Elementary.

However, Danbury Elementary's performance for specific student subgroups, such as Hispanic students and English Language Learners, has been more variable compared to its overall strong performance. Additionally, while Danbury Elementary generally outperforms the state average, some nearby schools, such as Gladys Polk Elementary, have higher rankings and stronger performance in certain subject areas and grade levels. These insights suggest that Danbury Elementary is a well-performing school, but there may be opportunities for improvement, particularly in addressing the needs of diverse student populations.

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.
