Marshall Elementary

Summary:

Marshall Elementary is a public elementary school in Houston, Texas, serving 610 students in grades K-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.

Marshall Elementary faces significant academic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools. The school's performance on STAAR assessments is significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, the percentage of 3rd, 4th, and 5th-grade students proficient or better in STAAR Reading was 35.21%, 25.29%, and 44.26%, respectively, compared to the district averages of 44.66%, 46.59%, and 51.32%, and the state averages of 48.85%, 50.66%, and 53.96%. The school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (98.03%) and relatively high student-teacher ratio (14.8 to 16.3) may be contributing factors to its lower academic performance.

Nearby schools, such as Fall Creek Elementary, Worsham Elementary, and North Forest Elementary, generally perform better academically than Marshall Elementary, with higher proficiency rates on STAAR assessments and higher statewide rankings. These nearby schools also have lower percentages of economically disadvantaged students and lower student-teacher ratios. While Marshall Elementary has a relatively high per-student spending of $10,076, this does not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes, suggesting that factors beyond just funding may be at play.

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.
