LaVille Elementary School

Summary:

LaVille Elementary School is a public elementary school in Lakeville, Indiana, serving 654 students in grades K-6. The school is part of the South Bend Community School Corp district, which is ranked 269 out of 381 districts in the state.

LaVille Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of white students (89.6%) compared to nearby schools, and has seen a decrease in chronic absenteeism from 13.4% to 6.6%, which is lower than the state average. The school outperforms its district average in both English Language Arts and Math proficiency, but its scores still lag behind the state averages. With 40-52% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, LaVille serves a relatively economically disadvantaged population, which may contribute to its academic performance. However, the school has seen an increase in per-student spending, from $7,863 to $9,872 over the past few years, and a decrease in its student-teacher ratio from 18.2 to 14, which could have a positive impact on student learning.

When compared to nearby schools, LaVille Elementary performs better than lower-ranked schools like Marshall Traditional School and Washington Discovery Academy, but lags behind higher-ranked schools like Madison Elementary School, Walkerton Elementary School, and North Liberty School in both test scores and overall school rankings. Despite these challenges, LaVille Elementary has maintained a relatively consistent performance over the past several years.

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.
