The standout school in the area is Wheatley Alternative Education Center, which has a significantly higher spending per student and a low student-teacher ratio, contributing to a 0% dropout rate. In contrast, Hector P. Garcia Elementary has consistently low test scores compared to the Temple Independent School District (Isd) and state averages, particularly in reading, math, and science, despite having a high percentage of Hispanic students and a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
The data reveals disparities in academic performance among the schools, with Lamar Middle standing out for its relatively high proficiency rate in Algebra I, while Jefferson Elementary has the lowest spending per student. These findings suggest the need for targeted interventions, equitable resource allocation, and a deeper understanding of the factors that influence student achievement in this area.
