Bayshore Elementary

Summary:

Bayshore Elementary is a public elementary school located in La Porte, Texas, serving 394 students in grades K-5. It is part of the La Porte Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 287 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Bayshore Elementary has a more diverse student population compared to nearby schools, with higher percentages of Hispanic and African American students, the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the years, dropping from a high of 248 out of 4,286 Texas elementary schools in 2015-2016 to 1,946 out of 4,675 in 2023-2024. Its SchoolDigger star rating has also decreased from 5 stars to 3 stars during this time. The school struggles with the performance of certain student subgroups, particularly White students, as well as English Language Learners, Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status students. Bayshore Elementary's STAAR test scores are generally lower than the La Porte ISD and Texas state averages, especially in mathematics and science.

Compared to other elementary schools in the area, Bayshore Elementary's performance lags behind the nearby Heritage Elementary and Lomax Elementary, both in the La Porte ISD. Additionally, Bayshore Elementary has a high percentage of students (66.5% in 2022-2023) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which is often an indicator of socioeconomic challenges that can impact academic performance. While the school's Gifted and Talented program is a bright spot, the overall academic performance at Bayshore Elementary suggests that a comprehensive approach targeting instructional practices, resource allocation, and support for struggling student populations may be necessary to improve student outcomes.

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.
