Fredericksburg Elementary

Summary:

Fredericksburg Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades 2-5 in the Fredericksburg Independent School District (ISD) in Fredericksburg, Texas, with a student population of 744 as of the 2022-2023 school year. The school faces several challenges, including declining student performance, a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, and lower rankings compared to the district and state averages.

Fredericksburg Elementary's performance on STAAR tests is generally below the district and state averages, particularly in reading and science. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 5th-grade students scored 20.13% proficient or better in STAAR Science, compared to 22.35% for the Fredericksburg ISD and 26.29% for the state. The school's ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 1272 out of 4260 Texas elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 2428 out of 4581 in 2021-2022. The school's performance is also weaker for specific student subgroups, such as Hispanic students and English Language Learners, who rank in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools.

However, Fredericksburg Elementary has shown some bright spots, such as its high ranking for Gifted and Talented students (top 105 out of 2,980 Texas elementary schools in 2022-2023). This suggests that the school may have the potential to improve its overall performance by focusing on best practices and strategies that have been successful for its high-achieving student subgroups. Additionally, a comparison to the nearby Stonewall Elementary, which has consistently outperformed Fredericksburg Elementary on STAAR tests and maintained a higher statewide ranking, highlights the potential for Fredericksburg Elementary to learn from the practices and strategies employed at other successful schools within the Fredericksburg ISD.

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.
