Dudley Elementary

Summary:

Dudley Elementary is a public elementary school in Victoria, Texas, serving 484 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Victoria Independent School District, which is ranked 801 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Dudley Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with a ranking between 4,416 and 3,687 out of around 4,600 schools over the past several years. The school's performance on STAAR tests is significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas, particularly for Hispanic, African American, and English Language Learner student subgroups. However, Dudley Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 14.5 to 16.9 students per teacher, and its per-student spending has increased from $9,144 in 2018-2019 to $9,909 in 2020-2021.

While Dudley Elementary faces significant challenges in improving its academic performance, some nearby schools in the Victoria ISD, such as C.O. Chandler Elementary and Martin De Leon Elementary, perform significantly better on STAAR tests and have higher SchoolDigger rankings. This suggests that there may be opportunities to learn from the practices and strategies of the higher-performing schools in the district to help improve outcomes at Dudley Elementary, particularly by addressing the specific needs and challenges faced by the school's Hispanic, African American, and English Language Learner 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.
