Hapeville Elementary School

Summary:

Hapeville Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 528 students in grades PK-5 in Hapeville, Georgia, which is part of the Fulton County School District. However, the school faces significant challenges, with consistently lower test scores than the district and state averages, a low statewide ranking, and a 100% free/reduced lunch rate indicating a high-poverty student population.

Hapeville Elementary's test scores on the Milestones Assessment are well below average, with only 32.1% of 3rd graders proficient or better in ELA, compared to 50.3% in Fulton County and 38.4% statewide. The school has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, placing it between 520-1014 out of over 1,200 Georgia elementary schools. While Hapeville Elementary spends more per student than the state average, its outcomes lag behind, suggesting that simply increasing funding may not be enough to improve performance without addressing other underlying issues.

The struggles of Hapeville Elementary are reflective of the broader educational challenges in the surrounding area, as nearby schools like T.J. Perkerson Elementary, College Park Elementary, and Parklane Elementary also have very low test scores and rankings. In contrast, the charter schools in the area, such as Resurgence Hall Charter School, have significantly higher test scores and rankings, highlighting the potential impact of school choice and alternative educational models.

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.
