Lakeview Elementary

Summary:

Lakeview Elementary is a public elementary school in Port Arthur, Texas, serving 616 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Port Arthur Independent School District, which is ranked 866 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lakeview Elementary faces significant challenges in serving its predominantly Hispanic (75.81%) and economically disadvantaged student population. The school consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, performing significantly below state and district averages on STAAR tests across all grade levels and subjects. This struggle extends to the school's diverse student subgroups, including Asian, African American, Hispanic, English Language Learners, and Special Education students. Despite the high level of economic disadvantage among Lakeview's students, the school's per-student spending is only slightly above the district average, suggesting that resources may not be effectively targeted to address the unique needs of this community.

While the nearby schools in the Port Arthur ISD also struggle academically, Washington Elementary, Staff Sergeant Lucian Adams Elementary, and Bob Hope School - Elementary Campus consistently outperform Lakeview Elementary, even when accounting for factors like student demographics and socioeconomic status. Additionally, Lakeview's performance has declined over the past decade, with its statewide ranking dropping from 2,859 out of 4,260 schools in 2013-2014 to 3,882 out of 4,675 schools in 2023-2024.

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.
