Lockhart Elementary

Summary:

Lockhart Elementary is a public magnet elementary school in Houston, Texas, serving 379 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Houston Independent School District, which is ranked 572 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lockhart Elementary faces significant academic challenges, with its students performing well below state and district averages on STAAR tests across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 43.18% of 3rd graders, 53.57% of 4th graders, and 42.37% of 5th graders were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to the state averages of 48.85%, 50.66%, and 53.96%, respectively. The school's performance in STAAR Mathematics and Science is even lower, with proficiency rates well below the state averages. Lockhart Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with a 1 or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing significantly below average.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as Foster Elementary, Arabic Immersion Magnet School, and Macgregor Elementary, generally outperform Lockhart Elementary on academic measures, with higher STAAR proficiency rates and better statewide rankings. This suggests that the challenges facing Lockhart Elementary may be unique to the school, as its high concentration of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds (92.35% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch) does not appear to be a universal issue for schools in the area.

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.
