Cedar Ridge High School

Summary:

Cedar Ridge High School is a public high school located in Round Rock, Texas, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 2,698 students. The school is part of the Round Rock Independent School District, which is ranked 216 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Cedar Ridge High School maintains high graduation rates, ranging from 95.6% to 98.6% over the past few years, its academic performance, as measured by STAAR EOC test scores, has declined over the years. The school's proficiency rates in Algebra I (19.95%), English I Reading (62.4%), and English II Reading (66.02%) are significantly below the district and state averages. Compared to nearby schools like Round Rock High School and Stony Point High School, Cedar Ridge High School generally performs worse academically, with lower STAAR EOC test scores and a lower statewide ranking. However, the school has a higher percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 31.02% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year.

The school's lower academic performance and higher percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds may be related, as research suggests that socioeconomic factors can significantly impact student achievement. Cedar Ridge High School's diverse student population, with 33.47% White, 12.45% African American, 39.84% Hispanic, 9.27% Asian, and 4.23% two or more races, also highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to address the significant disparities in the performance of different student subgroups.

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.
