Liberty Hill Elementary

Summary:

Liberty Hill Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in the Liberty Hill Independent School District (LHISD) in Texas, with a student population of 574 as of the 2022-2023 school year.

Liberty Hill Elementary is a high-performing school, consistently ranking in the top 25% of Texas elementary schools. The school's STAAR test scores exceed the state averages in reading, math, and science, with particularly strong performance for female students and White and multi-racial student subgroups. However, the school faces challenges in addressing the achievement gap for Hispanic and English Language Learner (ELL) students, whose performance lags behind the state averages.

Compared to nearby schools, Liberty Hill Elementary's academic performance is generally stronger than the other LHISD schools, such as Rancho Sienna Elementary and Santa Rita Elementary, as well as the schools in the neighboring Leander Independent School District, like Jim Plain Elementary, Bagdad Elementary, and Tarvin Elementary. However, the school's student population has become more diverse over the past few years, with a decrease in the percentage of White students and an increase in Hispanic students, which may require targeted interventions to address the achievement gap.

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.
