Voznesenka School

Summary:

Voznesenka School is a small, alternative public school serving grades PK-12 in Homer, Alaska, with a student population of just 119 as of the 2022-2023 school year. While part of the Kenai Peninsula Borough School District, which is ranked 10th out of 24 districts in the state, Voznesenka stands out in several key ways.

First, Voznesenka School consistently underperforms the district and state averages on standardized tests across subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 21.43% of Voznesenka students were proficient or better in science, compared to 44.8% for the district and 36.94% for the state. Similarly, just 19.67% of Voznesenka students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 35.29% for the district and 31.5% for the state. Additionally, Voznesenka has an extremely low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at just 2.52% in 2022-2023, suggesting it serves a more affluent student population compared to nearby schools like Nikolaevsk School (33.33%) and Kachemak Selo School (10%).

Another unique aspect of Voznesenka School is its racial homogeneity, with a 100% White student population for the past three school years. This stands in contrast to the more diverse nearby schools, such as Nikolaevsk, which is 93.33% White and 6.67% two or more races. Voznesenka's low student-teacher ratio of 10.7 in 2022-2023 suggests students may receive more individualized attention, but its consistent underperformance on standardized tests raises questions about the school's educational approach and the support it provides to students. The school's proximity to other small, alternative public schools in the area, such as Razdolna School, also suggests the Homer community may have a concentration of families seeking specialized educational environments for their children.

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.
