North Riverside Elementary

Summary:

North Riverside Elementary is a public elementary school in Fort Worth, Texas, serving 488 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Keller Independent School District, which is ranked 198 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating.

North Riverside Elementary has a more diverse student population compared to nearby schools, with a higher percentage of Hispanic (48.98%) and African American (11.27%) students. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally lower than the Keller ISD and Texas state averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, the school's 3rd-grade reading proficiency rate was 40% in 2023-2024, compared to 60.38% for Keller ISD and 48.85% for Texas. Additionally, North Riverside Elementary has a higher percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (69.47% in 2022-2023), indicating a higher proportion of students from low-income families.

The nearby schools, such as Park Glen Elementary, Lone Star Elementary, and Bette Perot Elementary, generally outperform North Riverside Elementary in academic achievement, with higher STAAR test scores and better statewide rankings. These schools also have lower percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a more affluent student population. Despite these challenges, North Riverside Elementary spends more per student ($11,944 in 2020-2021) compared to the nearby schools, which may suggest that the school is allocating additional resources to address the needs of its more diverse and economically disadvantaged student population.

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.
