Gregg Elementary

Summary:

Gregg Elementary is a public elementary school in Houston, Texas, serving 373 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Houston Independent School District, which is ranked 572 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Gregg Elementary faces significant challenges in improving student outcomes, particularly in reading and math. The school has a significantly higher Hispanic student population (83.11%) compared to nearby schools, and an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (94.83% to 98.66%). Gregg's test scores are generally lower than the district and state averages, and its rankings for specific student subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students, are in the bottom half or bottom third of Texas elementary schools. The school's statewide ranking has also trended downward in recent years, suggesting it is struggling to improve student performance.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Kelso Elementary, Cornelius Elementary, and Seguin Elementary, Gregg Elementary's performance is generally lower, with higher test scores and better statewide rankings. Despite having a relatively high per-student spending ($11,223 in 2020-2021) and a low student-teacher ratio (18.7 in 2022-2023), these resources have not translated into significantly better academic outcomes, highlighting the complex challenges faced by high-poverty schools like Gregg Elementary.

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.
