Coleman Elementary

Summary:

Coleman Elementary is a public elementary school in Coleman, Texas, serving 339 students in grades PK-4. The school is part of the Bangs Independent School District, which is ranked 464 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating.

While Coleman Elementary has a predominantly White student body (67.55%), the school has seen a slight decrease in White students and increase in Hispanic students over the past few years. Academically, the school consistently ranks in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools, with proficiency rates on state tests ranging from 25% to 40% in reading and math. Compared to the nearby J.B. Stephens Elementary, Coleman lags behind in performance, with J.B. Stephens ranking in the top half of Texas schools. Student subgroups at Coleman also show disparities, with Hispanic and special education students performing better than the overall school, while White and at-risk students perform worse.

The high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Coleman Elementary, around 65-69%, is significantly higher than the 71% at J.B. Stephens Elementary. This socioeconomic challenge, coupled with a decrease in per-student spending and a slightly higher student-teacher ratio, may contribute to the school's declining academic performance over the past several years. To address these issues, the school and Bangs Independent School District may need to implement targeted interventions, allocate more resources to support economically disadvantaged students, and explore ways to improve the overall academic environment and outcomes for all students.

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.
