Guerrero Elementary

Summary:

Guerrero Elementary is a public elementary school in El Paso, Texas, serving 395 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the El Paso Independent School District, which has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Guerrero Elementary has a predominantly Hispanic student population (around 90%) and a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (around 76% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch).

Academically, Guerrero Elementary has shown fluctuating performance, with its statewide ranking ranging from 1,044 out of 4,359 Texas elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 3,386 out of 4,578 in 2020-2021. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school's STAAR test scores were generally lower than the district and state averages, particularly in mathematics and science. Subgroup performance varied, with male students, Hispanic students, and special education students performing better than female students, English language learners, and gifted and talented students. Nearby schools, such as Kohlberg Elementary, Tippin Elementary, and Polk Elementary, generally outperformed Guerrero Elementary on STAAR assessments and had higher statewide rankings.

Guerrero Elementary has seen an increase in per-student spending, from $10,339 in 2018-2019 to $13,976 in 2020-2021, and a relatively stable student-teacher ratio. However, the school's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from a high of 722 out of 4,260 Texas elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 2,415 out of 4,647 in 2022-2023. This trend, coupled with the school's lower-than-average STAAR scores, indicates a need for a comprehensive review of the school's instructional practices, resource allocation, and support systems to improve student outcomes.

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.
