Summary:

Skidmore-Tynan Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in the Skidmore-Tynan Independent School District (ISD) in Skidmore, Texas, with a student population of 344 that is predominantly Hispanic (76.45%).

While Skidmore-Tynan Elementary generally performs below the state average on STAAR Reading, Math, and Science assessments across grades 3-5, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio ranging from 12.6 to 14 students per teacher. This may allow for more individualized attention and support for students. However, the school serves a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 70.64% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which is significantly higher than the state average. The school's per-student spending has increased in recent years, from $8,610 in 2018-2019 to $10,114 in 2020-2021, indicating a commitment to providing additional resources and support.

Compared to nearby schools, Skidmore-Tynan Elementary generally performs on par with or slightly below the Sinton ISD and Mathis ISD schools on STAAR assessments, with the St. Mary's Academy Charter School showing stronger performance in several grade levels and subjects. The school has also seen fluctuations in the performance of its special education and gifted and talented student subgroups, suggesting a need to closely monitor the support and programming for these specialized student populations.

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.
