Sunrise - McMillan Elementary

Summary:

Sunrise - McMillan Elementary is a public elementary school in Fort Worth, Texas, serving 325 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Fort Worth Independent School District, which is ranked 783 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Sunrise - McMillan Elementary faces significant challenges, with a student population that is 40.31% African American and 53.85% Hispanic, well above the state average. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Texas elementary schools over the past decade, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Student proficiency rates in STAAR Reading, Mathematics, and Science are significantly lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, only 32.14% of 3rd graders were proficient in STAAR Reading, compared to 48.85% statewide. The school's African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Low Socioeconomic Status student groups all rank in the bottom 20% of their respective subgroups in Texas, indicating significant achievement gaps.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the Fort Worth ISD district, such as Christene C. Moss Elementary, S.S. Dillow Elementary, and West Handley Elementary, also perform poorly compared to state averages, with similar low proficiency rates and rankings. This suggests a broader systemic issue within the Fort Worth ISD district that extends beyond Sunrise - McMillan. Despite spending significantly more per student ($12,225 in 2020-2021) compared to the nearby schools, the additional funding does not appear to translate into improved academic outcomes for the students at Sunrise - McMillan Elementary.

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.
