RISING STAR EL

RISING STAR EL is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the RISING STAR ISD school district, located in RISING STAR, TX with about 85 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 6th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 7 teachers, RISING STAR EL has a student/teacher ratio of about 12:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

RISING STAR ELementary, located in the small town of Rising Star, Texas, serves as the primary educational facility for the local community within the Rising Star Independent School District. As a small-town school, it functions as a central hub for the area, focusing on foundational academic instruction and fostering a close-knit learning environment. The school prioritizes core curriculum subjects while aiming to provide students with the personalized attention often found in smaller, rural school districts.

Beyond its academic offerings, the school is deeply integrated into the culture of the Rising Star community. By maintaining a student-centered approach, the district emphasizes both character development and academic achievement, preparing its elementary-age students for the transition to middle and high school within the same district.
