Summary:
The 77434 zip code area is home to 3 schools, including 2 elementary schools (Eagle Lake Pri and Eagle Lake Intermediate) and 1 high school (Rice Challenge Academy). These schools serve a diverse student population, with high rates of economic disadvantage, and show varying levels of academic performance and progress.
Eagle Lake Intermediate stands out as a school on the rise, with consistent improvements in its statewide ranking and strong STAAR test scores in reading and math, particularly in the upper grades. This may be attributed to its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.6. In contrast, Rice Challenge Academy has a unique student demographic with a higher percentage of White and African American students, but it struggles with a concerning 0.0% four-year graduation rate, an area that requires further investigation and improvement.
Across the schools, the high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 86.67% to 94.32%, indicate significant economic challenges faced by the communities they serve. This may have implications for resource allocation, support services, and strategies to address the needs of these student populations. The differences in student-teacher ratios and spending per student across the schools also raise questions about equity in resource distribution and its potential impact on educational outcomes.
