Eagle Park Community School

Summary:

Eagle Park Community School is an alternative public school in Crown Point, Indiana, serving students from kindergarten through 12th grade as part of the NW Indiana Special Education Coop district. The school faces significant academic and attendance challenges, with 0% of students proficient in key subjects and chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 37.7% to 57.6% in recent years.

Compared to nearby alternative and charter schools, Eagle Park Community School's performance is concerning. While the school serves a predominantly White student population with a significant African American presence, Trojan Virtual Academy in Chesterton has higher test scores and graduation rates, and Gary Lighthouse Charter School, 21st Century Charter School of Gary, Thea Bowman Leadership Academy, and Steel City Academy in Gary also outperform Eagle Park Community School despite serving similar student populations.

The high chronic absenteeism rates at Eagle Park Community School may be a contributing factor to the low academic performance, and the combination of high poverty levels and the specialized nature of the school as an alternative setting could also be impacting student outcomes. Addressing these challenges through targeted interventions and support services could be crucial in helping the students at Eagle Park Community School succeed.

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.
