Stanton Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students (68.15%) compared to the state average, and lower percentages of White (29.73%) and Asian (0.19%) students. The school's academic performance has been inconsistent, with its statewide ranking fluctuating from 1797 out of 4578 Texas elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 3944 out of 4479 in 2018-2019. Its overall rating from SchoolDigger has also varied, ranging from 3 stars to 1 star in recent years. Stanton Elementary's male and Hispanic students generally perform better than the school's female and White students, while its English Language Learner and Special Education students tend to perform below the state average.

Nearby schools, such as James Bowie Fine Arts Academy and Carver Center, have significantly outperformed Stanton Elementary on STAAR tests and have higher statewide rankings. These schools have a more diverse student population and lower percentages of economically disadvantaged students, which may contribute to their stronger academic performance. Stanton Elementary faces challenges, including a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (58.69%) and achievement gaps among student subgroups, but the school's efforts to address these issues through increased spending and a relatively low student-teacher ratio are noteworthy.

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.
