Cayuga Elementary

Summary:

Cayuga Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in the Cayuga Independent School District (ISD) in Cayuga, Texas, with a student population of 257 that is predominantly White (81.71%).

Cayuga Elementary has consistently ranked among the top elementary schools in Texas, with strong academic performance on STAAR tests that exceeds state and district averages, particularly in reading and mathematics. The school has performed exceptionally well for low socioeconomic status (SES) and at-risk students, ranking among the top schools in the state for these subgroups. Cayuga Elementary's relatively high per-student spending and low student-to-teacher ratio suggest that the school is allocating resources effectively to support student learning.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Fairfield Elementary and Fairfield Intermediate, as well as schools in the Athens ISD, Cayuga Elementary generally outperforms these schools on STAAR proficiency rates and statewide rankings. This difference in academic performance may be attributed to Cayuga Elementary's effective instructional practices, curriculum, and targeted interventions for various student subgroups, as well as its higher level of per-student spending and lower student-to-teacher ratio compared to some of the nearby schools.

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.
