Deaf Elementary School (Fsdb)

Summary:

Deaf Elementary School (FSDB) is a small public school in St. Augustine, Florida, serving 78 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Deaf/Blind District, which is the lowest-ranked district in the state.

Deaf Elementary School (FSDB) faces significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science are well below state and district averages, often falling below 10% proficiency. Additionally, the school has experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 12.4% to 38.2% in recent years, much higher than the state and district. The student population also faces socioeconomic disadvantages, with 62.82% to 69.23% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.

When compared to nearby elementary schools, such as Otis A. Mason Elementary School, R.B. Hunt Elementary School, and Ketterlinus Elementary School, Deaf Elementary School (FSDB) significantly underperforms. These nearby schools have higher academic proficiency rates, lower chronic absenteeism, and higher school rankings. The small size of Deaf Elementary School (FSDB), with only 78 students, may also contribute to the challenges the school faces in providing quality education to its diverse student population.

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.
