Susie Fuentes Elementary

Summary:

Susie Fuentes Elementary is a public elementary school in Kyle, Texas, serving around 650 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Hays Consolidated Independent School District, which is ranked 456 out of 968 school districts in Texas and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Susie Fuentes Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students (65.54%) compared to the state average for Texas elementary schools (around 52%), and a lower percentage of White students (24.31%) than the state average. The school generally underperforms compared to district and state averages on STAAR assessments, with 3rd grade reading proficiency (40.31%) lower than the district (52.26%) and state (48.85%) averages. Susie Fuentes performs relatively better for male students, English Language Learners, and Gifted and Talented students, but struggles with lower rankings for female students, African American students, and students with low socioeconomic status.

Susie Fuentes is located near several other elementary schools within the Hays CISD, including Hemphill Elementary, Tom Green Elementary, and Laura B. Negley Elementary, which have varying levels of academic performance and demographics. The school's relatively high percentage of students (around 60%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, along with its higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio, suggest that additional resources may not be translating into improved academic outcomes. However, Susie Fuentes' Gifted and Talented program appears to be a relative strength, with the school ranking in the top quartile of Texas elementary schools for this student subgroup.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
