L A Gililland Elementary

Summary:

L A Gililland Elementary is a public elementary school in Fort Worth, Texas, serving 485 students in grades PK-5 and part of the Eagle Mt-Saginaw Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 563 out of 968 districts in Texas.

While L A Gililland Elementary has a significantly higher Hispanic student population (75.26%) compared to the surrounding Remington Point Elementary and Willow Creek Elementary, as well as a lower percentage of White (14.64%) and African American (4.95%) students, the school consistently ranks in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools, with a 1-2 star rating from SchoolDigger. This is in contrast to the nearby Keller ISD schools, which generally perform better than the state average. Additionally, L A Gililland Elementary has a much higher percentage of students (75.88%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch compared to the Keller ISD schools, which range from 41.69% to 69.47%.

Despite the higher spending per student ($11,319 in 2020-2021) and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13:1 at L A Gililland Elementary, the school's academic performance lags behind the nearby Keller ISD schools, which have lower spending per student but better overall performance on STAAR tests. This suggests that the additional resources being directed towards L A Gililland Elementary may not be effectively improving the school's academic outcomes, and further investigation may be needed to understand the specific challenges faced by the school and identify effective strategies to close the achievement gap.

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.
