Ponder Elementary

Summary:

Ponder Elementary is a public elementary school in Ponder, Texas, serving 754 students in grades PK-5 as part of the North Texas Collegiate Academy district. While the school has a diverse student population, its academic performance is generally below the state average, with particularly low scores in Science and for certain student subgroups.

Ponder Elementary's STAAR test scores lag behind the state, with only 33.59% to 41.3% of students proficient or better in Reading, compared to state averages of 50.66% to 53.96%. The school's performance has declined over the years, dropping from a statewide ranking of 1,331 out of 4,286 Texas elementary schools in 2015-2016 to 3,531 out of 4,675 in 2023-2024. This is especially true for Hispanic students, English Language Learners, and Gifted and Talented students, who perform in the bottom 25% of Texas elementary schools in their respective categories. In contrast, the school's Special Education students perform relatively better, ranking in the top 25% of Texas elementary schools.

Interestingly, nearby schools such as North Texas Collegiate Academy-North Campus, Hilltop Elementary, and Argyle West generally outperform Ponder Elementary in academic achievement, despite having similar per-student spending and student-teacher ratios. This suggests that factors beyond funding and class size, such as the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Ponder Elementary, may be contributing to the school's academic challenges.

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.
