Washington K8

Summary:

Washington K8 is a public elementary and middle school located in Birmingham, Alabama, serving grades PK-8 with a student population of 567. The school is part of the Birmingham City School District, which is ranked 117 out of 137 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Washington K8 has a significantly higher percentage of African American (61.73%) and Hispanic (35.8%) students compared to the state average, in contrast to the nearby schools, such as Princeton School, Tuggle Elementary School, and EPIC Alternative Elementary School, which have a more diverse student population. The school consistently ranks in the bottom 20% of Alabama elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, and has proficiency rates in mathematics, science, and English language arts that are significantly lower than the state and Birmingham City district averages across all grade levels. Additionally, over 90% of Washington K8 students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite higher per-student spending of $11,393, the data suggests that Washington K8 is struggling to provide a high-quality education to its predominantly minority and economically disadvantaged student population. The comparison to nearby schools within the same district highlights the potential for improvement, as some schools serving similar student demographics are able to achieve better academic outcomes. This suggests that there may be opportunities to learn from the successful practices of these higher-performing schools and implement them at Washington K8. Additionally, the declining performance of Washington K8 over the past several years is a concerning trend that warrants further investigation and targeted interventions to reverse this trajectory.

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.
