Hazel Green Elementary School

Summary:

Hazel Green Elementary School is a public elementary school in Hazel Green, Alabama, serving students from kindergarten to 5th grade as part of the Madison County School District.

Hazel Green Elementary has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup that is more diverse than nearby schools in the Madison County district. The school has shown mixed academic performance, with lower proficiency rates in mathematics compared to the county and state averages, but higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts. Notably, the school has performed well in supporting certain student subgroups, ranking 109 out of 420 Alabama elementary schools for African American students and 52 out of 196 for Hispanic students, both with a 4-star rating. However, the school's statewide ranking has declined in recent years, and the growing percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch indicates an increasing population of economically disadvantaged students that the school may need to address.

Compared to nearby schools, Hazel Green Elementary's academic performance is generally on par with or slightly lower than schools like Mt Carmel Elementary, Riverton Elementary, and Madison Cross Roads Elementary. However, the school performs better than some schools in the Huntsville City district, such as Lakewood Elementary and Rolling Hills Elementary, which have significantly lower proficiency rates.

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.
