Stem Academy At Hedrick Middle

Summary:

Stem Academy At Hedrick Middle is a public middle school in Lewisville Independent School District in Lewisville, Texas, serving around 850 students in grades 6-8. The school has a diverse student population, with a majority Hispanic (65.41%) and significant Asian (11.65%) and African American (9.53%) representation, but has struggled academically in recent years.

Stem Academy At Hedrick Middle significantly underperforms the Lewisville ISD and Texas state averages on STAAR assessments across all grade levels and subjects, particularly in Mathematics and Social Studies. For example, in 2023-2024, only 19.23% of 6th graders were proficient in STAAR Math, compared to 43.92% for Lewisville ISD and 37.1% for Texas. The school's demographic factors, such as a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (79.41%), likely contribute to these academic challenges. However, the school's performance is notably weaker than other STEM-focused schools within the Lewisville ISD, as well as high-performing Lewisville ISD middle schools, suggesting that the school's issues go beyond just demographic factors.

The stark contrast in performance between Stem Academy At Hedrick Middle and these other schools highlights the need for significant improvement at Stem Academy At Hedrick Middle. The school leadership and district should closely examine the school's curriculum, instructional practices, and support systems to identify and address the root causes of the academic underperformance, and implement targeted interventions and support for struggling students, as well as professional development for teachers, to improve academic outcomes.

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.
