Barrick Elementary

Summary:

Barrick Elementary is a public elementary school in Houston, Texas, serving 486 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Houston Independent School District, which is ranked 572 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Barrick Elementary faces significant academic challenges, with STAAR test scores that are generally lower than the district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 27.5% of 3rd-grade students at Barrick Elementary were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to 44.66% for the Houston ISD and 48.85% for the state of Texas. The school's performance is particularly low in STAAR Spanish assessments, with proficiency rates well below the district and state averages. Barrick Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools, with a 1- or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing below average.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the Houston ISD district, such as Coop Elementary, De Chaumes Elementary, and Moreno Elementary, generally perform better than Barrick Elementary on academic measures, with higher STAAR proficiency rates and better statewide rankings. However, these nearby schools also serve student populations with similar high levels of economic disadvantage, suggesting that factors beyond just socioeconomic status may be contributing to Barrick Elementary's lower performance.

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.
