West Green Elementary School

Summary:

West Green Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 382 students in grades PK-5 in West Green, Georgia, which is part of the Coffee County School District. Unfortunately, this school consistently underperforms compared to the district and the state of Georgia in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subjects.

For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 17.6% of 3rd graders at West Green Elementary were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 29.2% in the district and 38.4% statewide. The school has been ranked in the bottom half of Georgia elementary schools for the past 10 years, with its highest ranking being 529 out of 1,240 schools in 2014-2015. In the most recent 2023-2024 school year, it ranked 991 out of 1,248 schools, earning a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

One potential factor contributing to the school's poor performance is its high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 81.37% to 82.98% over the past few years. This is significantly higher than the state average and indicates a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. Additionally, Indian Creek Elementary, which is only 11.91 miles away, outperforms West Green Elementary by a significant margin in all subject areas and grade levels, suggesting that the school may be lacking the resources and support needed to improve student outcomes.

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.
