Lexington Elementary

Summary:

Lexington Elementary is a public elementary school serving 498 students in grades PK-5 in the Lexington Independent School District (ISD) in Lexington, Texas. The school has a predominantly White student population (67.87%), with significant Hispanic (23.29%) and smaller African American (4.22%) and multi-racial (4.42%) representations.

Lexington Elementary has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from a high of 679 out of 4,578 Texas elementary schools in 2020-2021 to a low of 2,329 out of 4,479 in 2018-2019. The school's STAAR test scores are generally on par with or slightly below the state averages, with some notable exceptions, such as exceeding the state average in 5th grade math proficiency (57.32% vs. 48.96%) and significantly outperforming the state in 5th grade science proficiency (46% vs. 34%). Lexington Elementary has performed well for its special education students, ranking in the top 20% of Texas elementary schools in this category, but has struggled with its English Language Learner (ELL) and "At Risk" student populations, ranking in the bottom 20% of Texas elementary schools.

Compared to the nearby schools, such as Caldwell Elementary and Thorndale Elementary, Lexington Elementary generally performs on par or slightly better in terms of academic proficiency, particularly in 5th grade science and math. However, the school's performance for its African American and Hispanic student subgroups has been inconsistent, while its White student population has consistently performed in the top 50% of Texas elementary schools. Lexington Elementary's per-student spending has increased in recent years, but its student-teacher ratio of 14.2 in 2022-2023 is slightly higher than some neighboring 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.
