Chester A. Moore Elementary School

Q: Is Chester A. Moore Elementary School a good school?

Chester A. Moore Elementary School ranks 1505 th of 2256 Florida elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Chester A. Moore Elementary School is a public elementary school in Fort Pierce, Florida, serving 366 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the St. Lucie School District, which is ranked 47 out of 68 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating.

Chester A. Moore Elementary stands out for several key reasons. It has a significantly higher percentage of African American students (68.31%) compared to nearby schools, which range from 25-44% African American. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 41.8% to 52.2% over the past 5 years, much higher than the 12.6% to 43.9% seen at surrounding schools. Academically, Chester A. Moore's test scores are consistently lower than the St. Lucie district and Florida state averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2023-2024, only 35-49% of Chester A. Moore students were proficient in English Language Arts, compared to 49-55% at the district and state levels.

Despite having the highest spending per student ($17,493 in 2022-2023) compared to the surrounding schools, which range from $11,527 to $14,272 per student, Chester A. Moore continues to underperform. This suggests that factors beyond just funding may be contributing to the school's challenges. Additionally, the school's racial imbalance and high poverty rates, with 86.39% to 95.63% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch over the past 3 years, may be underlying issues that need to be addressed. Chester A. Moore's statewide ranking has also steadily declined over the past decade, from 1802 out of 2029 Florida elementary schools in 2012-2013 to 1505 out of 2256 in 2023-2024, a concerning trend.

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.
