Clearfork Academy South

Summary:

Clearfork Academy South is a public charter high school in Cleburne, Texas, serving grades 8-12 with a total enrollment of just 15 students. Despite outperforming its University of Texas University Charter School District in some areas, the school lags behind state averages in most test categories and ranks in the bottom 6% of Texas high schools.

Clearfork Academy South has a significantly higher percentage of white students (80%) compared to the surrounding schools, which have more diverse student populations. The school's test scores outperform the district in 8th grade reading, 8th grade science, and English II reading, but it struggles with an extremely high student-teacher ratio of 55.5, much higher than the 7.4 to 15.3 range of nearby schools. This suggests the school may be struggling to provide individualized attention and quality instruction to its students.

When compared to nearby high schools like Burleson High School, Grandview High School, and Joshua High School, Clearfork Academy South falls behind in both test scores and school rankings, despite serving a less diverse student population. This indicates that factors beyond just student demographics may be contributing to the success of higher-performing schools in the area.

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.
