Loxley Elementary School

Summary:

Loxley Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 482 students in grades PK-6 in Loxley, Alabama, which is part of the Baldwin County school district. While the school has adequate funding and a reasonable student-teacher ratio, it faces several challenges, including lower academic achievement compared to state and local averages, racial performance gaps, and a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students.

Loxley Elementary has consistently ranked in the middle third of Alabama elementary schools, maintaining a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in mathematics and English language arts are generally below the Baldwin County and Alabama state averages across grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 3rd grade math proficiency rate was 36.99% compared to the state average of 42.16%. Additionally, Loxley Elementary's performance for African American, White, and multi-racial student groups is in the bottom half of the state, with female students outperforming male students.

Compared to nearby high-performing schools like Rockwell Elementary and Belforest Elementary, Loxley Elementary's performance is generally lower. However, it performs better than some other nearby schools like Robertsdale Elementary. The school's high free and reduced-price lunch rate, ranging from 53.89% to 64.94% in recent years, suggests a lower-income student population, which may contribute to its relatively lower academic performance.

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.
