While North Loop Elementary has a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 92-96% eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, the school's academic performance lags behind both the Ysleta ISD and Texas state averages on STAAR tests across reading, math, and science. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the percentage of 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders at North Loop Elementary who were proficient or better in STAAR Reading was 52.94%, 48.15%, and 52.94%, respectively, compared to the Ysleta ISD averages of 56.66%, 56.96%, and 55.01%, and the Texas state averages of 48.85%, 50.66%, and 53.96%. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with female students outperforming male students and Hispanic students, English Language Learners, and Special Education students lagging behind their peers.

When comparing North Loop Elementary to nearby schools in the Ysleta ISD, some interesting patterns emerge. Ysleta Elementary, located about 2.58 miles away, consistently outperforms North Loop Elementary on STAAR tests, while Eastwood Knolls International, located about 2.18 miles away, is a higher-performing school that ranks in the top 10% of Texas elementary schools. These comparisons suggest that factors beyond just funding and resources may be contributing to the academic performance of schools in the same 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.
