Tadmore Elementary School

Summary:

Tadmore Elementary School is a public elementary school in Gainesville, Georgia, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 522 students. Despite being part of the Hall County School District, which is ranked 124 out of 203 districts in Georgia, Tadmore Elementary has consistently underperformed compared to the county and state averages on standardized tests.

Tadmore Elementary's academic performance is a significant concern, with proficiency rates that are well below the Hall County and Georgia averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 13.3% of 3rd graders, 16.7% of 4th graders, and 24.4% of 5th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 29-38.4% at the county and state levels. The school also has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 83.33% to 85.32% over the past few years, indicating a high-poverty student population. Despite spending more per student than nearby schools, such as Riverbend Elementary and North Jackson Elementary, Tadmore Elementary has not been able to translate this additional funding into improved academic outcomes for its students.

The consistent underperformance of Tadmore Elementary, coupled with its high-poverty student population and ineffective resource allocation, suggests that the school and the Hall County School District may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the unique needs of the Tadmore Elementary community and 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.
