Hayes Elementary School

Summary:

Hayes Elementary School is a public elementary school in Davenport, Iowa, serving grades PK-6 with a student population of 339. The school is part of the Davenport Community School District, which is ranked 298 out of 309 districts in Iowa and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher spending per student compared to nearby schools, Hayes Elementary consistently underperforms the district and the state of Iowa in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the percentage of 3rd-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts at Hayes Elementary was 38.9%, compared to 47.5% for the district and 64.2% for the state. The school's performance has been consistently low, with its statewide ranking among Iowa elementary schools ranging from 465 to 561 over the past 10 years, and it has received a 0 or 1 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger.

The nearby schools in the Davenport district, such as Harrison, McKinley, and Eisenhower Elementary, generally outperform Hayes Elementary in academic measures, with higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. These nearby schools also have lower percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting that the unique needs of the student population at Hayes Elementary may require targeted interventions and support to 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.
