Medio Creek Elementary

Summary:

Medio Creek Elementary is a public elementary school in San Antonio, Texas, serving 644 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Southwest Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 669 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating.

Medio Creek Elementary faces several key challenges. The school has a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students (86.18%) compared to the state average, and its academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally below the state and district averages across most grade levels and subjects. For example, the school's 3rd grade reading proficiency (42.55%) was lower than the state (48.85%) and district (40.76%) averages. The school also struggles with specific student subgroups, such as Gifted and Talented students, where it ranks in the bottom 10% of Texas elementary schools. Additionally, Medio Creek Elementary has a very high percentage of students (89.13%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Compared to other nearby schools in the Southwest ISD, Medio Creek Elementary generally performs worse academically, with lower STAAR test scores and lower statewide rankings. However, some nearby schools, such as Sun Valley Elementary and Sky Harbour Elementary, perform better and could serve as models for improvement. Addressing the needs of Medio Creek Elementary's economically disadvantaged population and implementing targeted interventions to address achievement gaps among student subgroups should be a priority for the school and district.

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.
