Kenedy County Wide Central School District


Summary:

Kenedy County Wide Central School District is a small school district in Texas that serves the community of Sarita. The district has only one school, Sarita Elementary, which provides education for students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade.

Sarita Elementary has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 30.61% White, 2.04% African American, and 67.35% Hispanic students. The school's performance on state assessments shows some strengths, such as outperforming the state average in 3rd, 4th, and 6th grade reading proficiency, but also areas for improvement, like lagging behind the state average in mathematics across all grades and 5th grade reading. Despite spending significantly more per student than the state average, the school's statewide ranking has fluctuated between 1,127th and 1,977th out of approximately 4,600 Texas elementary schools, indicating a need to evaluate the efficient allocation of resources to drive more consistent academic performance.

Overall, Sarita Elementary maintains a small school environment with a low student-teacher ratio, which can be beneficial for personalized learning. However, the school faces challenges in mathematics and 5th grade reading, and its high spending per student does not appear to translate into consistently strong academic outcomes across all grades and subjects. The district and school leadership may need to closely examine instructional practices and resource allocation to address these areas of concern and provide a well-rounded education for the students of Sarita.
