Rise Inspire Academy

Summary:

Rise Inspire Academy is a small public charter high school in San Antonio, Texas, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of just 16 students. The school's student body is predominantly White (43.75%) and Hispanic (56.25%), with no African American, Asian, Native American, Pacific Islander, or students of two or more races.

Despite its small size, Rise Inspire Academy has consistently ranked very low among Texas high schools, placing in the bottom 20% statewide. The school's performance is particularly concerning for its Hispanic students, who rank 1678 out of 1820 Texas high schools, while its White students perform better at 686 out of 1576. Rise Inspire Academy also has a high dropout rate of 17.2%, significantly higher than the state average. Academically, the school's performance on STAAR EOC exams is significantly below the state and district averages across all subjects, including Biology, English I Reading, English II Reading, and U.S. History.

When compared to nearby charter and public schools, such as KIPP Somos Collegiate, Travis Early College High School, Alamo Heights High School, and Young Women's Leadership Academy, Rise Inspire Academy significantly underperforms across various metrics, including academic achievement, graduation rates, and student demographics. With a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (43.75% eligible for free or reduced-price lunch), the school faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students.

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.
