Madison Elementary School

Summary:

Madison Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Colorado Springs, Colorado, serving 351 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Colorado Springs School District No. 11, which is ranked 66 out of 116 districts in Colorado and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Madison Elementary has a diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic (32.76%) and two or more races (9.69%) students compared to nearby schools like Carver Elementary, Audubon Elementary, and Roosevelt Charter Academy. However, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Colorado elementary schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance. Madison Elementary's test scores are generally lower than the Colorado Springs School District and the state averages across all grade levels and subjects, particularly for female students, white students, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

The high percentage of students (61.82% in 2022-2023) receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Madison Elementary suggests a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population, which may be a contributing factor to the school's lower academic performance. Additionally, the school's performance has declined over the years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 423 out of 938 schools in 2014-2015 to 536 out of 943 schools in 2023-2024, indicating that the school may be facing challenges in improving student outcomes and addressing equity and inclusion issues.

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.
