Huffman Elementary

Summary:

Huffman Elementary is a public elementary school in Huffman, Texas, serving 995 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Humble Independent School District, which is ranked 637 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Huffman Elementary stands out for its higher percentage of White students (68.14%) compared to the surrounding Humble ISD schools, which have more diverse student populations. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally lower than the state and district averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 3rd grade reading proficiency was 33.56%, compared to the district's 38.49% and the state's 48.85%. Huffman Elementary's rankings for specific student subgroups vary significantly, with the school performing relatively well for African American and multi-racial students but struggling for Hispanic, White, and economically disadvantaged students.

Huffman Elementary's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from 2176 out of 4359 Texas elementary schools in 2017-2018 (3 stars) to 3341 out of 4675 in 2023-2024 (1 star). This decline in academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is a concern, and the school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (49.55% in 2022-2023) may contribute to its lower performance. Nearby Falcon Ridge Elementary and Greentree Elementary, both part of the Humble ISD, generally outperform Huffman Elementary in academic measures and have higher statewide rankings.

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.
