Donna Park

Summary:

Donna Park is an elementary school in Hurst, Texas, serving 446 students in grades PK-6. It is part of the Hurst-Euless-Bedford Independent School District, which is ranked 172 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating.

Donna Park has a diverse student population, with 27.8% White, 33.41% African American, 28.03% Hispanic, and smaller percentages of other races. The school's academic performance on STAAR tests is generally lower than the district and state averages, particularly in the lower grade levels. However, Donna Park's African American and Hispanic students perform better compared to their peers at the district and state level. The school also has a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 74.66% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Interestingly, Donna Park's performance on STAAR tests is lower than nearby schools within the same district, such as Stonegate Elementary, Bellaire Elementary, and Hurst Hills Elementary. However, the school's focus on providing additional resources and support for its students, as evidenced by its higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio, may be contributing to the strong performance of its gifted and talented students, who rank in the top quartile of Texas elementary 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.
