Rosalie Elementary School

Summary:

Rosalie Elementary School is a public school in Pisgah, Alabama, serving 156 students in grades PK-8 as part of the Jackson County School District. The school stands out for its high percentage of Native American students, fluctuating academic performance, and challenges serving a predominantly low-income community.

Rosalie Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of Native American students (23.72%) compared to the state average and nearby schools like Dutton Elementary School and Stevenson Elementary School. Academically, the school's performance on state assessments has varied widely over the years, ranking as high as 206 out of 695 Alabama elementary schools in 2013-2014 but as low as 484 out of 684 in 2023-2024. This uneven performance extends to different student subgroups, with the school's ranking for White students declining while the ranking for low-income students has improved.

Rosalie Elementary's high poverty rate, with around 67% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, is significantly higher than the state and county averages. This suggests the school serves a predominantly low-income community, which may contribute to the challenges it faces in academic performance. Compared to nearby schools, Rosalie Elementary generally lags behind in academic achievement and has a higher student-teacher ratio, ranging from 17.3 to 28.5 over the past few years.

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.
