Int'l Newcomer Academy

Summary:

Int'l Newcomer Academy is a public middle school in the Fort Worth Independent School District, serving grades 6-9 with 414 students. The school has a high percentage of Hispanic students (67.15%) and a significant population of English Language Learners, ranking in the bottom 10% of Texas middle schools for this subgroup.

Despite the school's specialized mission and small class sizes, Int'l Newcomer Academy has consistently ranked in the bottom 1-2% of Texas middle schools, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has 0% proficiency rates in nearly all STAAR subject tests, significantly underperforming the district and state averages. Additionally, Int'l Newcomer Academy has had dropout rates ranging from 2.6% to 8.5% over the past 5 years, much higher than the district and state. While the school spends significantly more per student ($23,222 in 2020-2021) compared to the district and state averages, this high spending does not seem to translate to improved academic outcomes.

Nearby schools in the same district, such as Elder Middle, Rosemont Middle, and Stripling Middle, also perform poorly but not to the same extreme extent as Int'l Newcomer Academy. In contrast, some other nearby schools outside the Fort Worth ISD, like Applied Learning Academy and McLean Middle, have significantly higher academic performance, ranking in the top 50% of Texas middle schools.

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.
