Bayshore Elementary School

Summary:

Bayshore Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Bradenton, Florida, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 701. The school faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism, low test scores, and a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, as part of the Manatee School District, which is ranked 34 out of 68 districts in Florida and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bayshore Elementary has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 30% to 40% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state and district averages. Additionally, the school's test scores are consistently lower than the Manatee district and Florida state averages across all grade levels and subjects, with only 30-52% of Bayshore students proficient in English Language Arts and Math, compared to 51-63% for the district and 53-60% for the state. The school also has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 66.53% to 71.47% over the past few years, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite these challenges, Bayshore Elementary has a diverse student population, with a majority Hispanic (53.21%) and significant White (26.96%) and African American (11.84%) representation. The school's per-student spending has increased from $10,222 in 2019-2020 to $11,719 in 2022-2023, and it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 14.7 to 15.7 over the past few years. However, the nearby schools in the Manatee district face similar challenges, with many also ranking in the bottom 20% of Florida elementary schools, suggesting that the issues at Bayshore Elementary may be systemic within the district.

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.
