Charlotte Anderson Preparatory Academy

Summary:

Charlotte Anderson Preparatory Academy is an elementary school in Arlington, Texas, serving 389 students in grades PK-4 as part of the Mansfield Independent School District. The school has a diverse student population, with a mix of White, African American, Hispanic, and Asian students.

Academically, Charlotte Anderson Preparatory Academy has seen a decline in its statewide ranking in recent years, dropping from 328 out of 4,479 Texas elementary schools in 2018-2019 to 2,191 out of 4,675 in 2023-2024. However, the school's performance on STAAR tests remains strong, with 3rd and 4th-grade reading and math proficiency rates often exceeding the district and state averages, particularly for Hispanic students. The school's female students and Asian students have also performed exceptionally well, ranking in the top 30% of Texas elementary schools in recent years.

Compared to nearby schools, Charlotte Anderson Preparatory Academy generally outperforms Kenneth Davis Elementary and Glenn Harmon Elementary, but lags behind the high-performing Corey Fine Arts / Dual Language Academy, which is part of the Arlington Independent School District. The school's diverse student population and strong performance for Hispanic students are notable strengths, though continued focus on addressing the needs of all students, including those with special needs and from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, could help the school maintain and improve its overall academic excellence.

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.
