Travis Elementary

Summary:

Travis Elementary is a public elementary school in Edinburg, Texas, serving 329 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Edinburg Consolidated Independent School District, which is ranked 443 out of 968 school districts in the state.

While Travis Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students (98.18%) compared to nearby schools, its academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally lower than the district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, the school's 3rd grade reading proficiency (44.64%) was lower than the district (47.35%) and state (48.85%) averages in 2023-2024. Additionally, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, ranking highly for English Language Learners but relatively lower for Special Education and Low Socioeconomic Status students.

Travis Elementary also has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 85.95% to 89.36% over the past three school years, which is significantly higher than the surrounding schools. While the school's spending per student has been relatively higher than the surrounding schools, its statewide ranking has declined over the past few years, suggesting that its performance may be declining relative to other schools in the state. However, some nearby schools, such as Freddy Gonzalez Elementary and Jefferson Elementary, have significantly higher academic performance, providing opportunities for Travis Elementary to learn from their practices and strategies.

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.
