Hoyland Elementary

Summary:

Hoyland Elementary is a public elementary school in Houston, Texas, serving 677 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Spring Independent School District, which is ranked 776 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Hoyland Elementary faces significant challenges in terms of academic performance, student demographics, and resource allocation. The school's STAAR test scores are consistently lower than the state and district averages across all grade levels and subjects, with proficiency rates ranging from 38.14% to 43.75% in reading and 24.75% to 32.14% in math, compared to the state's 48.85% to 53.96% and 40.86% to 48.96%, respectively. The school's statewide ranking has been in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools for several years. Hoyland Elementary also has a significantly higher percentage of African American students (58.79%) and economically disadvantaged students (94.39%) compared to nearby schools, such as Heritage Elementary and Spence Elementary.

Despite the school's higher per-student spending ($10,368) and lower student-teacher ratio (15.1) compared to some nearby schools, such as Ralph Eickenroht Elementary ($12,807 per student) and Idea Spears Academy ($13,540 per student), these additional resources have not yet translated into improved academic performance. The consistent underperformance, high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, and racial disparities in student composition suggest the need for a comprehensive, data-driven approach to address these issues and improve educational outcomes for all students at Hoyland Elementary.

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.
