Austin Elementary

Summary:

Austin Elementary is a public elementary school located in Pampa, Texas, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 471 students. The school is part of the Pampa Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 747 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Austin Elementary has some notable strengths, including generally outperforming the Pampa ISD and the state of Texas in STAAR test scores across various subjects and grade levels. The school also performs relatively well for its Special Education and Gifted and Talented student subgroups, ranking in the top half of Texas elementary schools in these areas. However, the school faces some challenges, such as a declining statewide ranking over the years and significant disparities in performance between male and female students, as well as between economically disadvantaged students and their peers. Compared to nearby schools like Lamar Elementary and Wilson Elementary, which have higher percentages of Hispanic and economically disadvantaged students, Austin Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of White students and a lower percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients.

Despite its academic strengths, Austin Elementary's spending per student has fluctuated over the years, ranging from $6,973 to $8,335 per student, which is relatively low compared to the nearby schools and the state average. Addressing these areas of concern, such as the declining statewide ranking, gender and socioeconomic disparities, and lower spending per student, could help Austin Elementary maintain and improve its academic excellence in the years to come.

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.
