Summary:
The Somerset Academies Of Texas district includes two elementary schools: Somerset Academy Oaks and Somerset Academy Lone Star. While both schools serve elementary grades, they exhibit significant differences in performance, demographics, and resource allocation.
Somerset Academy Oaks stands out as the higher-performing school, ranking 1,424 out of 4,675 Texas elementary schools compared to Somerset Academy Lone Star's ranking of 3,162. Oaks also outperforms Lone Star on STAAR tests, with a higher percentage of students scoring proficient or better across multiple grade levels and subjects. Additionally, Oaks has a lower student-teacher ratio and a smaller percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting more favorable learning conditions.
In contrast, Somerset Academy Lone Star spends significantly more per student than Somerset Academy Oaks, yet its academic performance lags behind. This disparity suggests that factors beyond just funding, such as student demographics and school culture, may be contributing to the differences in academic achievement. Both schools have also seen a decline in their statewide rankings over the past few years, indicating a need for further investigation to identify the underlying causes and address any equity issues within the Somerset Academies Of Texas district.
