Caldwell Heights Elementary

Summary:

Caldwell Heights Elementary is a public elementary school in Round Rock, Texas, serving 654 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Round Rock Independent School District (RRISD), which is ranked 216 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating.

Caldwell Heights stands out for its unique demographics, with a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic (57.19%) and African American (15.44%) students compared to the surrounding schools, which range from 23.57% to 42.44% Hispanic. However, the school consistently underperforms the RRISD and Texas state averages on STAAR tests across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2023-2024, Caldwell Heights' 3rd grade reading proficiency was 33.33%, compared to the RRISD's 61.72% and the state's 48.85%. The school also struggles with the academic performance of certain student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 25% of Texas elementary schools for African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students.

Despite spending significantly more per student ($11,762 in 2020-2021) than nearby high-performing schools like Cactus Ranch Elementary ($7,629) and Teravista Elementary ($9,155), Caldwell Heights continues to face academic challenges. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio (11.8 in 2022-2023) compared to the surrounding schools suggests that factors other than class size may be contributing to the school's struggles. Caldwell Heights' inconsistent performance on STAAR tests over the years indicates the need for a more comprehensive and targeted approach to address 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.
