Sst Schertz

Q: Is Sst Schertz a good school?

Sst Schertz ranks 1368 th of 4675 Texas elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 4 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Sst Schertz is a public charter elementary school serving grades PK-7 in Schertz, Texas, with a diverse student population of 383. This high-performing school consistently outshines the state and its Schertz-Cibolo-U City Independent School District (Isd) in academic assessments, particularly for its Hispanic and low-income students.

Sst Schertz's standout metrics include exceptional STAAR reading and math proficiency rates, ranking among the top Texas elementary schools for its Hispanic, low-socioeconomic, and male student subgroups. The school also boasts a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 31.85%, compared to higher rates at nearby schools like Morningside Elementary and Garden Ridge Elementary. Additionally, Sst Schertz maintains a lower student-teacher ratio of 15.6, compared to the 12 to 15.5 range at surrounding schools.

While Sst Schertz outperforms the state and district, some nearby traditional public schools, such as Garden Ridge Elementary and Morningside Elementary, also demonstrate strong academic results. However, Sst Schertz's higher per-student spending of $15,592, compared to the $7,996 to $9,999 range at nearby traditional public schools, may contribute to its success. Overall, Sst Schertz's exceptional performance, particularly for its underserved student populations, makes it a standout choice for families in the Schertz area.

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.

Data source: National Center for Education Statistics, U.S. Dept of Education.

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.
