Ticasuk Brown Elementary

Summary:

Ticasuk Brown Elementary is a public elementary school in Fairbanks, Alaska, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 397. While the school has a more diverse student body compared to the surrounding area, it has consistently underperformed academically, ranking in the bottom third of Alaska elementary schools.

Ticasuk Brown Elementary's academic performance lags behind the district and state averages, with lower proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. The school's 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranking of 119 out of 173 Alaska elementary schools in the 2023-2024 school year reflect these challenges. The school has struggled to support the academic achievement of certain student subgroups, such as female, male, and White students, though it has performed better in supporting multi-racial students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

Compared to nearby schools in the Fairbanks North Star Borough School District, Ticasuk Brown Elementary has lower proficiency rates in core subjects. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school had lower proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to schools like Anne Wien Elementary, Hunter Elementary, and Weller Elementary. Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending, these factors have not translated into significantly better academic outcomes for Ticasuk Brown Elementary.

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.
