Winn Montessori

Summary:

Winn Montessori is an elementary school in the Austin Independent School District (AISD) that serves grades PK-5, with a diverse student population that is majority Hispanic (59.18% in 2022-2023). Despite its diverse student body, Winn Montessori has struggled academically in recent years, ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools and receiving low SchoolDigger ratings.

Winn Montessori's key differentiators include its high percentage of Hispanic and African American students, consistently lower academic performance on STAAR tests compared to AISD and Texas averages, a relatively low student-teacher ratio, and a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. While the school spends more per student ($15,846 in 2020-2021) than nearby schools like Blanton Elementary and Magnolia Montessori For All, its academic performance continues to lag behind these higher-performing institutions.

Winn Montessori's Montessori approach does not appear to have translated into strong academic outcomes for its students, with the school's performance on STAAR tests varying greatly across different subgroups. To improve student outcomes, Winn Montessori should closely examine the practices and strategies of the higher-performing nearby schools, while also leveraging its low student-teacher ratio and targeted investments to implement evidence-based interventions and support for its struggling student subgroups.

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.

Impact of COVID-19 on Winn Montessori
