Valor North Austin

Summary:

Valor North Austin is a public charter school in Austin, Texas that serves 824 students in grades kindergarten through 11th. The school is part of the Valor Public Schools district, which is ranked 274 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating.

Valor North Austin consistently outperforms the district and state in academic performance, with 5th grade reading proficiency rates of 85.71% compared to 68.65% for the district and 53.96% for the state. The school also has very low dropout rates, ranging from 0.0% to 0.7% over the past two years, significantly lower than the state average. Additionally, Valor North Austin has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 16.2 to 18.0, which may contribute to its strong academic outcomes. Despite having a lower percentage of economically disadvantaged students compared to the state, the school is still able to provide equitable educational opportunities and achieve exceptional results.

When compared to nearby alternative schools like Georgetown Behavioral Health Institute and Texas School for the Deaf, Valor North Austin significantly outperforms these schools in academic proficiency and graduation/dropout metrics. This highlights the exceptional performance of Valor North Austin and its potential to serve as a model for effective charter school education in Texas. While the school currently serves students up to 11th grade, expanding to include 12th grade could allow more students to benefit from the school's high-quality program and potentially increase its already impressive graduation rates.

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.
