Peete Elementary

Summary:

Peete Elementary is a public elementary school in Tyler, Texas, serving 414 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Tyler Independent School District, which is ranked 501 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Peete Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with significantly below-average performance on STAAR tests across all grade levels and subject areas. The school's African American and Special Education students perform especially poorly, ranking in the bottom 10-15% of their respective groups statewide. However, the school's Gifted and Talented students are a bright spot, ranking in the top 3.5% of their group. Peete Elementary spends slightly more per student than the district average, and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.3, which could be an asset if effectively utilized.

Compared to nearby schools within the Tyler Independent School District, such as Bell Elementary, T.J. Austin Elementary, and Bonner Elementary, Peete Elementary's performance is generally lower. However, the school's performance is comparable to or slightly better than some other high-poverty schools in the district, suggesting that the challenges faced by Peete Elementary may be systemic within the 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.

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.
