C O Chandler Elementary

Summary:

C O Chandler Elementary is a public elementary school in Victoria, Texas, serving 474 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Victoria Independent School District.

While C O Chandler Elementary is part of the same district as nearby schools like Ella Schorlemmer Elementary and Vickers Elementary, its academic performance and school ranking are generally lower. The school has a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students (65.4%) compared to the nearby schools, which range from 47.92% to 83.08% Hispanic students. Additionally, C O Chandler Elementary's 3rd grade reading proficiency (34.43%) is significantly lower than the district (34.97%) and state (48.85%) averages. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools and has received a 1- or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The high percentage of students (81.65%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch at C O Chandler Elementary, which is a proxy for low socioeconomic status, is significantly higher than the nearby schools, which range from 50.5% to 89.34% free/reduced-lunch recipients. This suggests that the school's academic struggles may be linked to the socioeconomic challenges faced by its predominantly Hispanic student population. To address these issues, the school may need to explore targeted interventions and resources to support the educational needs of its diverse student body.

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.
