Texas Preparatory School - Austin Campus

Public, Charter Grades K-6
Summary

Texas Preparatory School - Austin Campus is a small public charter elementary school serving grades K-6 in Austin, Texas, with a student population of just 42 as of the 2022-2023 school year. The school has a predominantly African American and Hispanic student body, with a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students.

Despite its small size, Texas Preparatory School - Austin Campus faces significant challenges. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with academic performance well below state and district averages on STAAR assessments. This is particularly concerning given the school's high spending per student, which is significantly higher than nearby Andrews Elementary, Winn Montessori, and other public schools in the Austin Independent School District. The school's student-teacher ratio is also relatively high, further contributing to the challenges it faces.

Interestingly, the school's academic performance has declined over time, with its statewide ranking dropping from 1,117 out of 4,359 schools in 2017-2018 to 4,286 out of 4,647 schools in 2022-2023. Additionally, the school's performance varies widely across different student subgroups, with some groups performing significantly better than others. These findings suggest that the school may need to re-evaluate its educational approach and strategies to better support the academic success of all its students.
