J L Everhart Magnet Elementary

Summary:

J L Everhart Magnet Elementary is a diverse public charter elementary school in Longview, Texas, serving 449 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade as part of the Longview Independent School District.

While J L Everhart Magnet Elementary has shown mixed academic performance, with strengths in certain subject areas and grade levels, it has a notably diverse student population, with 45.43% Hispanic, 37.86% African American, and 12.69% White students. The school has performed particularly well for its African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner (ELL) students, ranking in the top 25-35% of Texas elementary schools in recent years. However, the school has struggled with the performance of White students, ranking in the bottom 25% of Texas elementary schools. Compared to nearby schools, J L Everhart Magnet Elementary generally performs on par or slightly below the Longview Independent School District average, but often outperforms the state average.

Despite its diverse student population and some academic strengths, J L Everhart Magnet Elementary has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past several years, dropping from a high of 1,306 out of 4,578 Texas elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 2,406 out of 4,647 in 2022-2023. This suggests the school may be facing challenges in maintaining its performance, which could be related to the high percentage (around 90%) of students who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant socioeconomic disadvantages among the student population. While J L Everhart Magnet Elementary has demonstrated strengths in supporting certain student subgroups, it lags behind the high-performing Hudson Elementary, another magnet school within the same district.

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.
