J A Vitovsky Elementary

Summary:

J A Vitovsky Elementary is a public elementary school in Midlothian, Texas, serving 646 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Midlothian Independent School District, which is ranked 170 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating.

While J A Vitovsky Elementary has consistently ranked in the middle to lower range of Texas elementary schools, it faces several key challenges. The school's academic performance, particularly in reading and science, is generally below the district and state averages. Additionally, the school struggles with its White and multi-racial student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 25% of Texas elementary schools, while performing relatively well for its African American and English Language Learner (ELL) subgroups. The school also serves a high percentage of students from low-income backgrounds, with 60-61% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, significantly higher than the nearby Midlothian ISD schools.

Despite the higher per-student spending at J A Vitovsky Elementary compared to nearby schools, the school's academic performance remains below average. This raises questions about the effectiveness of the school's resource allocation and the need to ensure that additional funding is being used to implement evidence-based strategies and interventions that directly address the school's specific challenges. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach that targets the unique needs of the school's diverse student population.

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.
