Rusk Elementary has a more diverse student population compared to nearby schools, with a higher percentage of Hispanic (48.91%) and Asian (8.23%) students. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally lower than the Midland ISD and Texas state averages across various grade levels and subjects. For example, the school's 3rd grade reading proficiency (38.1%) is significantly lower than the Midland ISD (42.46%) and Texas (48.85%) averages. Rusk Elementary's rankings for specific student subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, and White students, are also in the lower half of Texas elementary schools, indicating room for improvement in addressing the needs of these groups. On a positive note, the school's special education and English Language Learner (ELL) student groups perform relatively better compared to other subgroups.

While Rusk Elementary faces academic challenges, some nearby schools, such as Emerson Elementary and Greathouse Elementary, demonstrate stronger academic results, particularly in reading and mathematics. Additionally, Rusk Elementary has a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (59.08%), indicating significant socioeconomic challenges that may impact student learning and achievement. The school has also experienced a gradual increase in its student-teacher ratio, from 15.1 in 2020-2021 to 18.7 in 2022-2023, which could potentially affect the quality of instruction and personalized attention for students.

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.
