Mohawk Elementary

Summary:

Mohawk Elementary is a high-performing public elementary school in Richardson, Texas, serving 490 students in grades PK-6. The school consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state, with exceptional academic achievement that sets it apart from the surrounding schools and the Richardson Independent School District (ISD).

Mohawk Elementary's academic performance is truly remarkable, with STAAR test scores that significantly exceed the district and state averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, 89.86% of 3rd graders at Mohawk were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to just 52.47% for the district and 48.85% for the state. This exceptional performance is likely due to the school's low student-teacher ratio of 13.3 students per teacher and its higher per-student spending of $9,498, both of which are above the district and state averages.

When compared to nearby schools, Mohawk Elementary's success stands out even more. Northrich Elementary, just 1.6 miles away, has a significantly different student demographic and lags behind Mohawk in academic performance. Similarly, Greenwood Hills Elementary, located 0.83 miles from Mohawk, has a majority Hispanic population and lower STAAR scores. These comparisons highlight the complex interplay between student demographics, resource allocation, and educational outcomes, and Mohawk Elementary's success provides valuable insights into the factors that contribute to exceptional academic achievement.

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.
