Mote (Anna P.) Elementary School

Summary:

Mote (Anna P.) Elementary School is a public elementary school in Wilmington, Delaware, serving students from kindergarten to 5th grade. With a diverse student population, the school faces significant challenges in terms of chronic absenteeism, academic performance, and overall school ranking compared to both the district and state averages.

Mote (Anna P.) Elementary School has experienced a sharp increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 14.5% in 2018-2019 to 30.8% in 2022-2023, which is notably higher than the state and district averages. Academically, the school consistently underperforms, with only 31.48% of 4th-grade students and 28.33% of 5th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the district's 37.41% and 43.41%, respectively. In Mathematics, the proficiency rates for 4th and 5th grades were even lower, at 14.29% and 14.75%, respectively, compared to the district's 35.21% and 31.33%. As a result, Mote (Anna P.)

Despite the school's higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio, these factors have not translated into improved academic outcomes for the students at Mote (Anna P.) Elementary School.

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.
