Crescent Road Elementary School

Summary:

Crescent Road Elementary School is a public elementary school in Griffin, Georgia, serving 418 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Griffin-Spalding County School District, which is ranked 178 out of 203 districts in the state.

Crescent Road Elementary consistently outperforms the district and state averages on the Milestones Assessment, with 5th-grade proficiency rates of 45.2% in ELA, 41.9% in Math, and 43.5% in Science, compared to the county's 28.1%, 23.7%, and 27.2%, respectively. The school also has a higher statewide ranking, placing in the top 44% of Georgia elementary schools. However, Crescent Road has a relatively high percentage of students (67.22%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students.

While Crescent Road Elementary outperforms the district and state, it significantly outshines nearby schools within the same district. For instance, its 5th-grade ELA proficiency rate of 45.2% is more than double the rates at Beaverbrook Elementary (21.1%) and Cowan Road Elementary (21.2%). This consistent performance over the years suggests a stable educational environment, but the school's challenges in serving a population with significant socioeconomic disadvantages indicate the need for continued support and targeted interventions to further 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.
