Morton School

Summary:

Morton School is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 in Morton, Texas, with a student population of 353. The school has a diverse student body, with a racial makeup of 88.39% Hispanic, 10.2% White, and smaller percentages of other racial groups.

One of Morton School's key strengths is its consistently high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 91.3% to 100% over the past five years, which is notably better than the state average. Additionally, the school has very low dropout rates, ranging from 0% to 1.6% over the same period, significantly better than the state average. However, the school's test scores, as measured by the STAAR assessments, are generally lower than the state and Whiteface Consolidated Independent School District averages across most grade levels and subjects, often by 20-30 percentage points. This may be due in part to the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 80.06% to 82.72% over the past three years, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Interestingly, despite the school's low test scores, Morton School has maintained exceptionally high graduation rates, suggesting it may be effective in supporting students to complete their education, even if they are not meeting proficiency standards on standardized tests. Additionally, the school's student population is significantly more Hispanic (88.39%) compared to the nearby Whiteface School (53.5% Hispanic), highlighting the unique demographic composition of Morton School. While Whiteface School has higher test scores across most grade levels and subjects, it also has a lower percentage of economically disadvantaged students, which may contribute to its stronger academic performance.

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.
