Lake Village Elementary School

Q: Is Lake Village Elementary School a good school?

Lake Village Elementary School ranks 506 th of 1010 Indiana elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Lake Village Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 185 students in grades K-6 in Lake Village, Indiana, which is part of the North Newton School Corporation district.

Despite its relatively small size and high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (46.49%), Lake Village Elementary consistently outperforms the district and state averages on ILEARN tests for English Language Arts and Math. In 2023-2024, 43.33% of all students at Lake Village were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 39.7% for the district, and 37.78% were proficient or better in Math, compared to 34.69% for the district. This strong academic performance is a notable strength of the school, especially when compared to nearby schools like Douglas MacArthur Elementary School and Kankakee Valley Intermediate School.

However, the school does face some challenges, including a significantly higher percentage of white students (85.95%) compared to the surrounding schools, which have more diverse student populations. Additionally, Lake Village Elementary has seen a steady increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 5.9% in 2020-2021 to 14.7% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the district average. The school and North Newton School Corporation should closely monitor and address this concerning trend, as it can have a significant impact on student learning and achievement.

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.
