Fields Elementary

Summary:

Fields Elementary is a public elementary school located in San Antonio, Texas, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 843 students. The school is part of the Northside Independent School District, which is ranked 496 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Fields Elementary consistently outperforms the Northside Independent School District and the state of Texas in STAAR test scores across multiple grade levels and subjects, particularly in Reading and Mathematics. The school's diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic and Asian students compared to the district and state averages, is an asset that contributes to a rich learning environment. However, the relatively lower performance of Asian and multi-racial student subgroups suggests the need for targeted interventions to ensure equitable outcomes for all students.

The rising percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Fields Elementary, from 36.47% in 2020-2021 to 51.84% in 2022-2023, indicates a growing population of economically disadvantaged students, which may require additional resources and support. When compared to other nearby elementary schools within the Northside Independent School District, such as Tomlinson Elementary and Krueger Elementary, Fields Elementary generally outperforms its peers in academic achievement, particularly in Reading and Mathematics.

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.
