Montessori Academy At Onesimo Hernandez Elementary

Summary:

Montessori Academy At Onesimo Hernandez Elementary is a public elementary school in Dallas, Texas, serving 353 students from pre-kindergarten to 7th grade. This school stands out for its consistently strong academic performance, particularly in reading and math, where it outperforms the Dallas Independent School District and the state of Texas.

One key factor that sets Montessori Academy apart is its diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic (67.99%) and Asian (7.65%) students compared to nearby schools. Additionally, the school maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 16.8, which may contribute to its academic success. Notably, Montessori Academy's Hispanic and English Language Learner (ELL) students perform exceptionally well, ranking in the top quartile of Texas elementary schools in these subgroups.

While Montessori Academy's performance is impressive, it is interesting to note the stark contrast with the highly-rated Bradfield Elementary, which is part of the Highland Park Independent School District and located just 1.94 miles away. Bradfield consistently ranks among the top 5% of Texas elementary schools, highlighting the impact that district-level factors, such as funding and resources, can have on a school's academic outcomes.

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.
