Summary:
The Rio Hondo Independent School District (Isd) in Texas has only one elementary school, Rio Hondo Elementary, which serves a predominantly Hispanic and low-income student population. The school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is consistently lower than the state averages in both reading and mathematics, indicating potential areas for improvement.
Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending and lower student-to-teacher ratio compared to the state average, Rio Hondo Elementary is ranked 2914 out of 4675 Texas elementary schools and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The Rio Hondo Independent School District as a whole is also ranked 704 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating, suggesting systemic challenges in providing quality education to its students.
The high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (86.54%) at Rio Hondo Elementary highlights the socioeconomic challenges faced by the school and its community. While the school appears to be allocating resources effectively, the academic performance data suggests that there may be opportunities to further optimize instructional strategies and support to address the unique needs of the student population and improve overall educational outcomes.
