La Vega Intermediate H P Miles Campus

Summary:

La Vega Intermediate H P Miles Campus is a public middle school in Waco, Texas, serving grades 4-6 with a student population of 592. The school is part of the La Vega Independent School District (ISD), and its student body is predominantly Hispanic (60.47%) and African American (24.66%).

Despite serving a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 86.63% to 93.79% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, La Vega Intermediate struggles academically. The school's proficiency rates on the STAAR tests are significantly below state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with 4th-grade reading proficiency at 34.39% and 6th-grade math proficiency at 24.04%, compared to state averages of 50.66% and 37.1%, respectively. When compared to nearby middle schools like China Spring Intermediate and Robinson J.H., La Vega Intermediate's performance is notably lower.

Additionally, La Vega Intermediate has a relatively high student-teacher ratio, ranging from 14.2 to 14.8 over the past three school years, which may impact the level of individual attention and support that students can receive. The school's diverse student population, with a much higher percentage of Hispanic and African American students compared to nearby schools like Bosqueville Middle, presents both challenges and opportunities in terms of meeting the unique needs of its learners.

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.
