Glenn Elementary

Summary:

Glenn Elementary is a public elementary school in San Antonio, Texas, serving 471 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Northside Independent School District, which is ranked 496 out of 968 districts in the state.

Glenn Elementary faces significant academic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools. The school's performance on state assessments is significantly below district and state averages, with only 33.33% of 3rd graders proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to 44.52% for the district and 48.85% for the state. The school's student subgroups, such as Hispanic and English Language Learner students, also perform poorly compared to their peers across Texas. This is likely due to the high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 92.99% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

While Glenn Elementary spends more per student ($11,940 in 2020-2021) and has a lower student-teacher ratio (11.3) compared to nearby Michael Elementary, Allen Elementary, and Adams Hill Elementary, these resources do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes for the students. Addressing the underlying socioeconomic and educational needs of the student population may be crucial for improving the school's 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.
