Lake Travis Elementary

Summary:

Lake Travis Elementary is a public elementary school in Austin, Texas, serving 763 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Lake Travis Independent School District (LTISD). While the school has a more diverse student population compared to nearby schools, it lags behind high-performing schools in the district on academic measures.

Lake Travis Elementary has a student body that is 42.46% White, 50.2% Hispanic, and 1.97% Asian, which is more diverse than the surrounding schools. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR assessments, is lower than the LTISD district average and the state average. Additionally, 38.14% of students at Lake Travis Elementary are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, a significantly higher percentage than nearby schools like Barton Creek Elementary and Laura Welch Bush Elementary.

Over the past several years, Lake Travis Elementary's statewide ranking has declined, and there are significant disparities in performance between student subgroups, with Hispanic and low-income students performing worse than their White and Asian counterparts. These challenges suggest potential equity issues that may need to be addressed through targeted interventions and support to ensure all students have the resources and opportunities they need to succeed.

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.
