Amana Academy West Atlanta

Summary:

Amana Academy West Atlanta is a public charter elementary school serving 166 students in grades K-8 in Mableton, Georgia. It is part of the State Specialty Schools II district, which is ranked 25th out of 203 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Amana Academy West Atlanta significantly outperforms the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency for 3rd and 4th grades, with 62.2% proficiency in 3rd grade ELA compared to the state average of 38.4%. The school's performance is also higher than the State Specialty Schools II district average, indicating it is one of the stronger performing schools within the district. Additionally, the school has a very low student-teacher ratio of 10:1, which is significantly lower than the nearby Cobb County public schools (11.5-14.3 student-teacher ratio). The school also has a relatively low percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients at 15.66%, compared to the nearby public schools which range from 20.7% to 90.83%.

Amana Academy West Atlanta's strong academic performance, coupled with its low student-teacher ratio, suggests it is providing a high-quality educational experience for its students. However, as a public charter school, it may have limited enrollment capacity and admissions processes that could impact accessibility for all students in the area. Additionally, the school's relatively low percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients suggests it may not be serving the most economically disadvantaged students in the community to the same extent as the nearby Cobb County public schools.

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.
