Iltexas Westpark Middle

Summary:

Iltexas Westpark Middle is a public charter middle school serving grades 6-8 in Houston, Texas, with a diverse student population. The school is part of the KIPP Texas Public Schools district, which is ranked 729 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Iltexas Westpark Middle has consistently performed below the state average in STAAR test scores across various subjects and grade levels, with significant disparities in performance among different student subgroups. While African American and Gifted and Talented students perform relatively well, Hispanic and English Language Learner students struggle, with proficiency rates well below the state average. The school's dropout rate, however, has remained at 0% for several years, which is a notable achievement.

When compared to the nearby middle schools in the Alief Independent School District and Fort Bend Independent School District, Iltexas Westpark Middle generally performs worse in academic assessments, despite having a lower student-teacher ratio and spending per student. This suggests that factors beyond just resource allocation may be contributing to the school's underperformance. The school's Gifted and Talented program appears to be a relative strength, but the performance of Special Education and English Language Learner students indicates a need for more targeted support and resources.

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.
