Chapin High School

Summary:

Chapin High School is a public high school in El Paso, Texas, serving 1,718 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the El Paso Independent School District, which is ranked 610 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Chapin High School faces several challenges, including lower academic performance compared to the district and state averages. The school's proficiency rates on STAAR End-of-Course exams are below average, and its four-year graduation rate has declined from 91.2% in 2019-2020 to 84.4% in 2022-2023, which is lower than the state average. Additionally, the school's dropout rate has increased from 1.1% in 2019-2020 to 3.7% in 2020-2021, higher than the state average. Chapin High School's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with the school ranking in the top 30% of Texas high schools for African American students but in the bottom 50% for Asian, Gifted and Talented, and Migrant students.

Interestingly, Chapin High School's performance is generally lower than nearby schools within the same district, such as Transmountain Early College High School, which ranks in the top 5% of Texas high schools and has significantly higher proficiency rates on STAAR EOC exams. The high percentage of students (67.93%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at Chapin High School also indicates that the school may face additional challenges in supporting its diverse student population and addressing non-academic barriers to learning.

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.
