Arlington Woods School 99

Summary:

Arlington Woods School 99 is an elementary school in Indianapolis, Indiana that serves 335 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the Indianapolis Public Schools district, which is ranked 290 out of 381 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Arlington Woods School 99 faces significant challenges compared to nearby schools. The school has a much higher percentage of African American (65.97%) and Hispanic (23.58%) students than the surrounding area and the state average. Academically, Arlington Woods consistently ranks among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Indiana, with proficiency rates well below the district and state averages in core subjects. The school also has extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching over 70% in the 2020-2021 school year, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages. Additionally, over 80% of Arlington Woods students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite spending significantly more per student ($16,055 in 2021-2022) than the district and state averages, Arlington Woods has not been able to translate this additional funding into improved academic outcomes. Nearby schools like Robert Lee Frost School 106, Anna Brochhausen School 88, and James Russell Lowell School 51 also struggle with low academic performance and high poverty levels, but Arlington Woods consistently ranks among the lowest-performing schools in the area, suggesting the school may face unique challenges that the others do not.

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.
