Goodyear Elementary School

Summary:

Goodyear Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Brunswick, Georgia, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 489 students. The school is part of the Glynn County School District, which is ranked 58 out of 203 districts in Georgia and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending, ranging from $11,260 to $13,485 over the past three school years, and smaller class sizes with a student-teacher ratio of 12 to 13.7, Goodyear Elementary School consistently underperforms compared to the Glynn County and Georgia state averages in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 28.6% of 3rd graders, 11% of 4th graders, and 25.6% of 5th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the Glynn County averages of 36.5%, 34.4%, and 52.3%, respectively.

The school's extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 91.12% to 91.21% over the past three school years, indicates that Goodyear Elementary School serves a predominantly low-income population, which may contribute to the school's academic challenges and underperformance. This raises questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources to support student learning at the school.

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.
