Harmony Elementary

Summary:

Harmony Elementary is a public elementary school in San Antonio, Texas, serving 684 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the East Central Independent School District, which is ranked 862 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Harmony Elementary faces significant challenges, including a student population that is 79.09% Hispanic, well above the state average. The school consistently underperforms the state and district averages on STAAR tests, with 3rd grade reading proficiency at just 24.07% compared to the state average of 48.85% and the district average of 29.85%. Harmony Elementary also struggles with the academic performance of several student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 10% of Texas elementary schools for Hispanic, White, English Language Learner, and Low Socioeconomic Status students. The school's statewide ranking has declined from the bottom 50% in 2012-2013 to the bottom 5% in recent years.

While Harmony Elementary faces significant challenges, there may be opportunities for improvement. The school's performance on STAAR tests, while low, is not the worst in the East Central Independent School District, and nearby schools like Sinclair Elementary, Salado Elementary, and Oak Crest Elementary outperform Harmony Elementary by 10-20 percentage points. Addressing the school's unique demographic and socioeconomic factors, as well as targeted academic interventions and support, may help Harmony Elementary improve student outcomes and provide a better educational experience for its 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.
