Summary:
Reagan County Independent School District (ISD) in Texas has only one elementary school, Reagan County Elementary, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The school's student population is predominantly Hispanic (83.96%), with smaller percentages of White (14.86%), Asian (0.71%), and students of two or more races (0.47%). However, the school does not have any African American or Native American students, which raises concerns about equity and representation.
Academically, Reagan County Elementary has consistently underperformed the state average in STAAR reading, math, and science proficiency rates across multiple grade levels. The school's 5th-grade students, in particular, struggle, with proficiency rates significantly lower than the state average in all three subjects. This suggests that the school may be struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students, especially those from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, as indicated by the school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (65.33%).
Despite the school's higher-than-average per-student spending of $15,372 and a relatively small student-teacher ratio of 11.6, these resources do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes. This raises questions about how the school's resources are being allocated and utilized to support student learning. Further investigation and targeted interventions may be necessary to address the challenges faced by Reagan County Elementary and improve educational outcomes for the students in Reagan County Independent School District (ISD).
