Bagley Elementary consistently outperforms the Jefferson County and Alabama state averages in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, 75.53% of 3rd-grade students at Bagley Elementary were proficient or better in English, compared to 53.06% in Jefferson County and 62.8% statewide.

Bagley Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of white students (96.63%) compared to the surrounding schools, which have more diverse student populations. Additionally, the school has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (43.69% in 2022-2023), indicating a lower proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds compared to nearby schools like Bryan Elementary School and Cordova Elementary School. These factors, combined with Bagley's strong academic performance, suggest the school may have access to more resources and funding compared to its peers in the Jefferson County district.

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.
