Baty Elementary

Summary:

Baty Elementary is a public elementary school in Austin, Texas, serving 507 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Del Valle Independent School District, which is ranked 878 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Baty Elementary faces significant academic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom 10% of Texas elementary schools over the past several years. The school's performance on STAAR tests is well below the state and district averages, with only 12.5% of 3rd-grade students proficient or better in reading, compared to 48.85% statewide and 30.21% in the Del Valle ISD. The school's low performance is particularly pronounced for Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Special Education student subgroups. Interestingly, the nearby Smith Elementary, also part of the Del Valle ISD, significantly outperforms Baty Elementary on academic measures, ranking in the top 50% of Texas elementary schools.

Despite Baty Elementary's relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher-than-average spending per student, the school's academic challenges persist. The high percentage of students from low-income families and the high proportion of Hispanic and English Language Learner students may be contributing factors to the school's underperformance. Addressing these challenges will likely require targeted interventions and support, as well as collaboration with higher-performing nearby schools, such as Smith Elementary, to leverage best practices and strategies for improving 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.
