Rose Bud Elementary School

Summary:

Rose Bud Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 417 students in grades K-6 in the Rose Bud School District in Arkansas. The school's performance has been inconsistent, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between 135th and 258th out of Arkansas elementary schools over the past several years.

While Rose Bud Elementary School's test scores are generally below the state averages in English Language Arts, Reading, and Mathematics, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and spending per student that is slightly above the state average. However, the school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 59.4% to 61.66% over the past three years, suggests that poverty may be a significant factor impacting student achievement. When compared to nearby schools, such as Vilonia Elementary School, Rose Bud Elementary consistently underperforms in test scores and statewide rankings.

Overall, the data indicates that Rose Bud Elementary School is facing challenges in maintaining consistent academic performance and may need to address factors such as curriculum, instructional practices, and support for economically disadvantaged students to improve student outcomes. The school's fluctuating performance and lower-than-average test scores suggest that parents in the Rose Bud School District may want to consider other educational options for their children, such as the higher-performing Vilonia 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.
