Euchee Creek Elementary School

Summary:

Euchee Creek Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Grovetown, Georgia, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 657 students. The school is part of the Columbia County School District, which is ranked 16th out of 203 districts in Georgia and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Euchee Creek Elementary has consistently performed above the state average in Milestones Assessment test scores across grades 3-5 in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. However, the school's performance lags behind the Columbia County district average in most subject areas and grade levels. The school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 33.05% to 36.38% over the past few years, which is higher than some of the nearby schools in the district. Euchee Creek Elementary has seen an increase in per-student spending, from $8,313 in 2016-2017 to $9,292 in 2018-2019, which is higher than the state average, and the school has maintained a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 13.3 to 13.8 over the past few years.

When compared to other elementary schools in the Columbia County district, Parkway Elementary and Baker Place Elementary consistently outperform Euchee Creek Elementary on state assessments. The relatively high free/reduced lunch rates at Euchee Creek Elementary may be a contributing factor to the school's performance, as research has shown a correlation between socioeconomic status and academic achievement. However, the school's higher per-student spending compared to the state average suggests that it may have access to more resources and support, which could positively impact 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.
