Claude Berkman Elementary

Summary:

Claude Berkman Elementary is a public elementary school in Round Rock, Texas, serving 414 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Round Rock Independent School District (RRISD), which is ranked 216 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating.

Claude Berkman Elementary faces significant challenges compared to nearby schools. The school has a much higher percentage of Hispanic students (64.01%) and a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (71.5% to 76.81%). Academically, the school consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with performance on STAAR tests significantly lower than the RRISD and state averages across all grade levels and subjects. The achievement gap between Claude Berkman and the surrounding schools, as well as the RRISD and state averages, has been widening over time.

Despite having a higher per-student spending level ($12,591 in 2020-2021) compared to some of the higher-performing nearby schools, such as Double File Trail Elementary, Old Town Elementary, and Fern Bluff Elementary, Claude Berkman Elementary continues to underperform. This suggests that factors beyond just funding, such as teacher quality, curriculum, and school leadership, may be contributing to the school's challenges.

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.
