Summary:

Klein Road Elementary is a public elementary school in New Braunfels, Texas, serving students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade as part of the New Braunfels Independent School District (ISD). The school has a diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic students compared to the district and state averages.

Academically, Klein Road Elementary's performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally lower than the district and state averages, particularly for Hispanic and English Language Learner (ELL) students. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated, ranging from 1118 out of 4578 Texas elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 2298 out of 4647 in 2022-2023. When compared to other elementary schools in the New Braunfels ISD, such as Lamar Elementary and Voss Farms Elementary, Klein Road Elementary generally performs below the district average in academic measures.

The school's spending per student has increased over the past few years, but it is still lower than some of the nearby schools in the Comal ISD. Additionally, Klein Road Elementary has a higher student-teacher ratio compared to nearby schools, which may contribute to the academic challenges faced by the school. To address these concerns, the district and school leadership should consider implementing targeted interventions, increasing parental and community engagement, and exploring ways to optimize resource allocation and staffing to better support the diverse needs of the student population.

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.
