Summary:

Petersburg School is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 in Petersburg, Texas, with a student population of 272 as of the 2022-2023 school year. The school has a predominantly Hispanic student body (69.85%), with a high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch (74.63% to 78.01%).

Petersburg School stands out for its exceptional academic performance. The school has maintained a 100% four-year graduation rate for the past four school years, significantly outperforming the state average. Additionally, the school has reported a 0% dropout rate over the past five school years, an impressive achievement. While the school's test scores are generally below the state averages, it has outperformed the state in specific areas, such as 4th grade reading (56.25% vs. 50.66%) and 8th grade English II reading (65% vs. 59.82%) in the 2022-2023 school year. The school's per-student spending has also increased steadily, reaching $14,151 in 2020-2021, higher than the state average.

By continuing to invest in its students and address their unique needs, Petersburg School can further solidify its position as a leader in the region.

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.
