F B Mccord Elementary School

Summary:

F B Mccord Elementary School is a public elementary school in Burbank, Illinois, serving 254 students in grades K-5 and part of the Burbank School District 111.

The school faces several challenges, including consistently low academic performance, with only 24.1% of students proficient in English Language Arts and 16.1% proficient in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 41.2% and 28.4%, respectively. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching 20.9% in the 2022-2023 school year, significantly higher than the state average of 17.5%. Additionally, 68.11% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. When compared to other elementary schools in the district, such as J.B. Kennedy Elementary School, which had higher proficiency rates, F B Mccord Elementary School consistently underperforms.

Despite increased spending per student, from $13,669 in 2019-2020 to $18,817 in 2022-2023, the school has not seen a corresponding improvement in student outcomes. The school's student-teacher ratio has also fluctuated, from 17.5 in 2021-2022 to 14.4 in 2022-2023, but this change does not appear to have had a significant impact on the school's academic performance. Addressing these challenges will be crucial for F B Mccord Elementary School to provide a high-quality education for its students.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

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.
