Youth Recovery Home

Summary:

Youth Recovery Home is a small public high school in Laredo, Texas, serving grades 7-12 with just 9 students. As part of the United Independent School District, which is ranked 310 out of 968 districts in the state, Youth Recovery Home stands out from the surrounding schools in several key ways.

Academically, the school struggles, with 0% proficiency on STAAR/EOC tests in core subjects like Mathematics and Science, far below the district and state averages. Its dropout rates have also fluctuated, reaching as high as 22.2% in 2017-2018, higher than the 0.0% to 1.5% rates at nearby schools like Martin High School and Nixon High School. With low spending per student, ranging from $2,575 to $2,856, and a very small student-teacher ratio of 2.4 to 4.6, the school appears to be operating with limited resources compared to the $6,723 to $13,658 per student and 13.5 to 38.1 student-teacher ratios at surrounding schools.

These findings suggest that Youth Recovery Home faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. The school's consistently low academic performance, high dropout rates, and resource constraints set it apart from the other high schools in the Laredo area, raising questions about the factors contributing to these disparities and the support the school may need to improve student outcomes.

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.
