Summary:
The city of Lott, Texas is home to four schools, including two elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school. The data reveals a stark contrast in academic performance between the schools, with Westphalia Elementary consistently ranking among the top elementary schools in the state, while the Rosebud-Lott Independent School District schools lag behind.
Westphalia Elementary stands out as a high-performing school, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and significantly outperforming the state averages in reading, math, and science assessments. In contrast, Rosebud-Lott Middle School appears to be a lower-performing school, ranking in the bottom half of Texas middle schools with proficiency rates trailing the state averages in core subjects.
The data suggests that socioeconomic factors, such as the higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students at the Rosebud-Lott schools, may contribute to the performance gaps observed. However, the Rosebud-Lott Independent School District also seems to face district-level challenges, as its schools generally perform below the state averages. While Rosebud-Lott High School has shown some improvement in recent years, the district as a whole has opportunities to learn from the successes of Westphalia Elementary and apply those strategies to improve educational outcomes for all students in the city.
