Green Valley Elementary

Summary:

Green Valley Elementary is a public elementary school in Houston, Texas, serving 598 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Galena Park Independent School District, which is ranked 369 out of 968 districts in Texas.

Despite the district's efforts to allocate additional resources to the school, Green Valley Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with significantly lower academic performance than the district and state averages on STAAR tests. The school's performance is particularly low for African American and Hispanic students, who rank in the bottom quartile of their respective subgroups in Texas. However, the school's relatively strong performance in supporting its English Language Learner (ELL) students suggests that it may be effectively implementing strategies and interventions to support their academic progress.

Compared to nearby schools within the Galena Park Independent School District, such as Sam Houston Elementary and Tice Elementary, Green Valley Elementary generally performs worse on STAAR tests and has a lower statewide ranking. However, these nearby schools also have high percentages of economically disadvantaged students, similar to Green Valley Elementary, indicating that the challenges faced by the school may be reflective of the broader socioeconomic challenges in the district.

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.
