Amy Beverland Elementary

Summary:

Amy Beverland Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades 1-6 in the MSD Lawrence Township district in Indianapolis, Indiana, with around 810 students. The school consistently outperforms the district and state in academic performance, with 45.52% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 46.27% in Math, compared to 27.12% and 23.91% for the district, respectively. Additionally, the school has seen a significant decrease in chronic absenteeism, from 18.4% in 2021-2022 to 13.7% in 2022-2023, which is lower than the district average.

While Amy Beverland Elementary is a strong performer within its district, it lags behind schools in higher-performing districts like Hamilton Southeastern Schools. For instance, Lantern Road Elementary and Geist Elementary in the Hamilton Southeastern district have significantly higher ILEARN scores and lower chronic absenteeism rates. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 44.2% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the state average.

The higher spending per student at Amy Beverland Elementary ($10,505 in 2021-2022) compared to the district average may be a contributing factor to the school's academic success, suggesting a potential relationship between funding and student outcomes. However, the school's performance could be further improved by addressing the gradual decline in racial diversity, with the percentage of white students increasing from 47.6% in 2020-2021 to 43.95% in 2022-2023. By comparing its practices to those of higher-performing districts, Amy Beverland Elementary may be able to identify potential areas for growth and continue to provide a high-quality education for its students.

Open Quote The quality of teachers varies greatly. Son's 2nd grade teacher I rate at 4.5, went above and beyond, excellent communicator. I would rate 3rd grade teacher at 2.5. Very disorganized, not a good communicator, did not keep classroom decorum well and gave little individual attention.
However, office staff were excellent. Close Quote

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.
