Cedarville Elementary School

Summary:

Cedarville Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades K-4 in Cedarville, Arkansas, with 270 students and a student-teacher ratio of 15.6. The school is part of the Cedarville School District, which is ranked 143 out of 252 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Cedarville Elementary School consistently underperforms the state and district averages in test scores, with only 28.3% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 26.6% proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the state averages of 33.8% and 36.4% respectively. The school also has an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 98.89% to 100% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state and district averages. Despite spending more per student ($10,691) than nearby schools, which range from $7,194 to $10,456 per student, Cedarville Elementary School is one of the lower-performing schools in the region, with schools like Parkview Elementary School and Oliver Springs Elementary School significantly outperforming it in test scores.

The declining performance of Cedarville Elementary School, with its statewide ranking dropping from 227 out of 487 schools in 2021-2022 to 315 out of 497 schools in 2023-2024, is concerning and suggests that the school may be struggling to address the needs of its high-poverty student population. The Cedarville School District should consider implementing targeted interventions and strategies to improve student outcomes at Cedarville Elementary School.

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.
