Nueces Canyon Elementary

Summary:

Nueces Canyon Elementary is a public elementary school in Camp Wood, Texas, serving 144 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the Nueces Canyon Consolidated Independent School District, which is ranked 514 out of 968 school districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Nueces Canyon Elementary's performance is mixed compared to state and district averages. While the school performs well in some subject areas, such as 5th-grade reading and science, it struggles in others, particularly in 4th-grade and 6th-grade mathematics. The school's 3rd-grade reading proficiency is on par with the district average, but its 4th-grade reading proficiency is significantly lower than the state average. In mathematics, the school's performance is below the state average across all grade levels, with 6th-grade mathematics proficiency at only 3.85% compared to the state's 37.1%.

Nueces Canyon Elementary faces several challenges, including declining academic performance over the past several years, significant performance gaps between different student subgroups, and a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, which may contribute to the school's academic challenges. To address these issues, the school and district should consider implementing targeted interventions, equitable educational practices, and a more strategic allocation of resources to support the unique needs of their 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.
