Diane Winborn Elementary

Summary:

Diane Winborn Elementary is a public elementary school in Katy, Texas, serving 737 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Katy Independent School District, which is ranked 158 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating.

Diane Winborn Elementary has a diverse student population, with 27.54% White, 19.4% African American, 41.52% Hispanic, 3.66% Asian, and 7.6% two or more races. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally lower than the Katy ISD district average and the state average across various subjects and grade levels. For example, the school's 3rd grade reading proficiency was 47.86% in 2023-2024, compared to the district's 66.61% and the state's 48.85%. Additionally, 65.4% of Diane Winborn Elementary students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, which is higher than nearby schools like Memorial Parkway Elementary (81.09%) and Cimarron Elementary (59.25%).

Despite these challenges, Diane Winborn Elementary's Gifted and Talented program appears to be a strength, with the school ranking 317 out of 2,980 Texas elementary schools in this category for the 2022-2023 school year. However, the school's overall academic performance has declined over the years, with its ranking among Texas elementary schools dropping from 646 in 2013-2014 to 1839 in 2023-2024, and its star rating decreasing from 4 to 3 during this period. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with notable disparities in reading and math proficiency between male and female students, as well as between low-socioeconomic status and non-low-socioeconomic status students.

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.

Open Quote I have had many opportunities to move to another school--both in and out of district. However, I wouldn't think of doing such a thing. DWE is an amazing place to work. The administration and staff are wonderful to work with, and the learning environment is pleasant and condusive to learning at all times. Close Quote

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.
