Chapman School

Summary:

Chapman School is an elementary school located in Anchor Point, Alaska, serving grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 160 students. This school stands out as a strong performer within the Kenai Peninsula Borough School District, consistently outpacing the district and state averages in academic assessments.

Chapman School has a diverse student population, with 75.62% White, 3.75% Hispanic, 8.12% Native American, and 11.25% two or more races. The school has shown particularly strong performance for male students, ranking 68th out of 150 Alaska elementary schools, and for low socioeconomic status students, ranking 23rd out of 104 Alaska elementary schools. In the 2023-2024 school year, Chapman School had 70.97% of students proficient or better in ASA/Science, compared to 44.8% for the district and 36.94% for the state. The school also had higher proficiency rates in STAR/English Language Arts and STAR/Mathematics across multiple grade levels compared to the district and state averages.

While Chapman School has maintained a consistent academic performance over the years, with a 2-3 star rating from SchoolDigger, it faces the challenge of a higher percentage of students from low-income families compared to nearby schools like Paul Banks Elementary and Fireweed Academy. However, West Homer Elementary, another high-performing school in the district, also has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating the broader economic challenges faced by the region.

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.
