Edgar Allan Poe Stem Dual Language Middle

Summary:

Edgar Allan Poe STEM Dual Language Middle School is a public charter middle school in San Antonio, Texas, serving 378 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the San Antonio Independent School District, which is ranked 811 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being a STEM Dual Language Middle School, Edgar Allan Poe consistently ranks among the lowest-performing middle schools in Texas, with only 25.58% of 6th-grade students proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to the state average of 54.45%. The school's performance is particularly low for Hispanic, English Language Learner, Special Education, and Gifted and Talented student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 25% of Texas middle schools for these groups. The school's high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds (96.56% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch) and relatively high student-teacher ratio of 18.5 may be contributing factors to its poor academic performance.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as Hot Wells Middle, Harris Middle, Tafolla Middle, and Rogers Middle, also perform poorly on academic measures, with most ranking in the bottom 25% of Texas middle schools. However, these schools generally outperform Edgar Allan Poe STEM Dual Language Middle School, suggesting that the challenges faced by this school may be more pronounced. Addressing the underlying socioeconomic and resource challenges faced by the school and the broader San Antonio Independent School District may be necessary to improve student outcomes at this institution.

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.
