Summary:
The Wortham Independent School District (Isd) in Texas has only one elementary school, Wortham Elementary, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The school has consistently ranked in the lower half of Texas elementary schools over the past three years, with below-average performance on STAAR tests, particularly in 5th-grade science.
Wortham Elementary serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with 67.74% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. The school's per-student spending is slightly lower than the state average, and the student-teacher ratio is slightly higher, which may contribute to the school's challenges. While the data does not indicate any correlation between the school's performance and its racial makeup, the high level of economic disadvantage among the student population suggests that targeted interventions and additional resources may be needed to improve academic outcomes.
Overall, Wortham Independent School District (Isd) has only one elementary school, Wortham Elementary, which has consistently underperformed compared to other Texas elementary schools. The school's challenges appear to be related to economic factors, resource allocation, and the need for targeted interventions, particularly in the area of 5th-grade science.
