Hines-Caldwell

Summary:

Hines-Caldwell is an elementary school in Houston, Texas that serves students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. With a diverse student population that is predominantly Hispanic, the school has faced challenges in academic performance compared to district and state averages.

Hines-Caldwell's student performance on STAAR tests has been mixed, with some grade levels performing above the Houston Independent School District average but below the state average, while other grades struggle to meet proficiency standards. The school's ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 1,163rd out of 4,329 Texas elementary schools in 2016-2017 to 3,983rd out of 4,647 in 2022-2023. This variation in performance is likely influenced by the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with over 92% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Comparing Hines-Caldwell to nearby schools, such as Fondren Elementary, Reagan K-8 Educational Center, and Anderson Elementary, reveals that many of these schools also struggle with academic performance, ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools.

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.
