Bailey Elementary

Summary:

Bailey Elementary is a public elementary school in Pasadena, Texas, serving students from pre-kindergarten to 4th grade as part of the Pasadena Independent School District. The school has seen a shift in its student population, with a significant increase in Hispanic students and a decrease in White and African American students in recent years.

While Bailey Elementary spends more per student than nearby schools, its academic performance has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools. The school's STAAR test scores, particularly in mathematics, are generally below the district and state averages. However, Bailey Elementary performs better in STAAR Spanish assessments, with higher proficiency rates than the district and state in several grade levels and subject areas. The school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students and the varying performance of different student subgroups suggest that the school may face unique challenges that require targeted interventions and support programs.

Compared to nearby schools, Bailey Elementary's academic performance and student demographics differ significantly. For example, Jensen Elementary, which is only 1.53 miles away, consistently outperforms Bailey Elementary on STAAR assessments and has a more diverse student population. In contrast, Young Elementary, which is 1.72 miles away, has significantly lower academic performance than Bailey Elementary across most subject areas and grade levels.

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.
