Summary:

Dwight D Eisenhower Elementary School is a public elementary school in Crown Point, Indiana, serving 644 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Crown Point Community School Corp, which is ranked 33rd out of 381 school districts in the state and has a 5-star rating.

Dwight D Eisenhower Elementary School stands out for its strong academic performance, consistently outpacing state and district averages on ILEARN assessments. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 39.38% in English Language Arts and 66.44% in Math, compared to the district's 49.3% and 58%, respectively. The school also maintains a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks in the top 6% of Indiana elementary schools. Additionally, the school has a diverse student population, with 75.62% White, 14.6% Hispanic, and 3.73% Asian students, and a lower chronic absenteeism rate of 10.1% compared to state and district averages.

While Dwight D Eisenhower Elementary School has maintained its strong performance, its statewide ranking has declined from the top 5% in 2013-2014 and 2014-2015 to the top 30% in the 2023-2024 school year. This suggests the need to closely monitor and address any potential factors contributing to the decline in relative performance. The school's lower percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (19.72%) compared to the state and district averages also indicates a relatively higher socioeconomic status of the student population, which may contribute to the school's academic success. However, it will be important to ensure that all students, regardless of their background, are receiving the support and resources they need to thrive.

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.
