Neysa Callison Elementary

Summary:

Neysa Callison Elementary is a public elementary school in Round Rock, Texas that serves 647 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending, the school consistently underperforms academically compared to the district, state, and nearby schools.

Neysa Callison Elementary has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger and its STAAR test scores are significantly lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels and subjects, particularly in mathematics and science. For example, only 29.47% of 5th graders were proficient or better in STAAR Mathematics, compared to the district average of 61.72%. The school also has a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at 68.62%, which may be contributing to its academic challenges. Nearby schools like Blackland Prairie Elementary and IDEA Round Rock Technical Academy significantly outperform Neysa Callison Elementary on STAAR assessments.

Despite the school's higher per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio, its academic performance has been consistently low over the past several years with little to no improvement. Addressing the root causes of the school's struggles and implementing targeted interventions may be necessary to improve student outcomes at Neysa Callison Elementary, which is part of the Round Rock Independent School District.

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.

Open Quote This school has the worst principal and assistant principals. They have failed to protect my son from threats from other children. They have failed to call me back with follow ups with issues with either my daughter or son. When they speak to you, its like they are speaking to you as if your the issue and your the problem. They always cut you off when your speaking, talk over you and never answer your questions directly. They are terrible people. There are some good teachers. Most of them are just as bad as the principals. The teachers lie about issues with your child or what the parent said. I have emailed concerns about my child's grade twice and I get no answer. You cant report the teachers to the principal because the principals never has the parents back they always take the teachers word, he cuts you off and will hang up on you. Don't let you children go here. EVER! Close Quote

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.
