West Point Intermediate School

Summary:

West Point Intermediate School is a public elementary school serving grades 4-5 in Vinemont, Alabama, with a student population of 269. The school is part of the Cullman County school district, which is ranked 44 out of 137 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

West Point Intermediate School has a predominantly white student population, with 88.85% of students identifying as white, which is higher than the state average and nearby schools in the Cullman County district. The school has shown strong academic performance, particularly in English/Language Arts, with 70.87% of 5th-grade students proficient or better in the Summative Assessment/English, outperforming both the Cullman County and Alabama state averages. However, the school has a significant population of students with special education needs and low socioeconomic status, ranking 292 out of 395 Alabama elementary schools for special education students and 233 out of 670 for low socioeconomic status students.

When compared to other nearby schools, West Point Intermediate School generally performs on par or slightly better in terms of academic achievement, particularly in English/Language Arts. However, the school lags behind some of the higher-performing schools in the Cullman City district, such as East Elementary and West Elementary, which are both rated 5 stars by SchoolDigger. This may be due in part to the school's lower per-student funding of approximately $7,860, which is lower than the state average and some of the nearby schools.

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.
