Summary:

Lauderdale Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 705 students in grades PK-6 in Rogersville, Alabama. The school is part of the Lauderdale County School District, which is ranked 48 out of 137 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lauderdale Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of white students (90.21%) compared to the surrounding schools, which have more diverse student populations. The school's academic performance is mixed, with 5th grade English scores above the state average but lower performance in 3rd, 4th, and 6th grade English, as well as in math across all grades. Lauderdale Elementary's rankings for specific student subgroups, such as female students, white students, and special education students, are generally lower than the overall school ranking, indicating achievement gaps. The school has a relatively high free/reduced lunch rate of 56.03%, which is higher than some nearby schools but lower than others in the area.

Compared to nearby schools, Lauderdale Elementary's performance is generally lower than that of Brooks Elementary, the highest-performing school in the immediate area. However, Lauderdale outperforms some other nearby schools, such as Leighton Elementary and Hazlewood Elementary, which are among the lowest-performing schools in the state. The school's challenges in addressing achievement gaps and improving overall academic outcomes, particularly in math and lower grade-level English, suggest that Lauderdale Elementary could benefit from a closer examination of its curriculum, instructional practices, and support systems to better serve its students and community.

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.
