Smyer Schools

Summary:

Smyer Schools is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 in the Smyer Independent School District, with a student population of 442 that is predominantly White (52.94%) and Hispanic (45.02%). Despite having a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students, Smyer Schools consistently outperforms the state and nearby schools like Meadow School, Homebound, and Anton School on STAAR assessments, particularly in reading and math.

Smyer Schools' strong academic performance is likely due to its high spending per student ($11,920 in 2020-2021) and low student-teacher ratio of 10.7, which is lower than many nearby schools. The school has also maintained consistently high graduation rates, ranging from 91.3% to 100% over the past 5 years, and very low dropout rates, at 0% in most years. This is a notable strength compared to the state and nearby schools like Texas Technical University K-12 and Whitharral School.

Despite serving a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students, Smyer Schools' academic and graduation outcomes suggest the school is effectively supporting its diverse student population, which includes a higher percentage of Hispanic students (45.02%) compared to the nearby Mullin Mosaic and Ropes School. This makes Smyer Schools a standout alternative school option 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.
