Elsanor School

Summary:

Elsanor School is an elementary school located in Robertsdale, Alabama, serving grades PK-6 with a student population of 362. It is part of the Baldwin County School District, which is ranked 33 out of 137 districts in Alabama and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Elsanor School stands out for its strong academic performance, particularly in 3rd grade English (84.62% proficient vs. 70.48% in Baldwin County and 62.8% in Alabama) and 4th grade Science (46.15% proficient vs. 53.93% in Baldwin County and 43.54% in Alabama). The school also ranks 23 out of 395 Alabama elementary schools for its special education students, earning a 5-star rating, and 130 out of 670 for its students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, earning a 4-star rating. However, Elsanor School's ranking for its white student population is lower than its rankings for other subgroups, suggesting a potential racial achievement gap that could be worth further investigation.

While Elsanor School generally outperforms nearby schools like Foley Elementary School and Magnolia School, it lags behind higher-performing schools in the area, such as Stonebridge Elementary and Elberta Elementary. Additionally, Elsanor School's high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds (69.06%) may contribute to its academic performance, as research has shown that poverty can be a significant barrier to student achievement.

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.
