Patriot Academy

Summary:

Patriot Academy is an alternative public virtual school serving grades K-12 in Scottsville, KY, with 111 students enrolled as part of the Allen County school district. While the school boasts a strong 88.4% four-year graduation rate, outpacing the state average, its students face significant academic challenges, particularly in mathematics.

Patriot Academy's test scores lag behind the county and state averages across various subjects and grade levels, with only 12% of 11th-grade students scoring proficient or better in ACT Mathematics, compared to 22% in Allen County and 30% statewide. This achievement gap is likely exacerbated by the school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 71.17%, which is notably higher than the county and state averages. Additionally, Patriot Academy has a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 37:1, which may impact the personalized learning approach the school aims to provide.

Despite these challenges, Patriot Academy's focus on a flexible, personalized learning environment may contribute to its higher-than-average graduation rate, suggesting that the school's unique approach is helping students who may struggle in a traditional school setting. By addressing the root causes of the mathematics proficiency gap and leveraging the school's strengths, Patriot Academy can continue to support and empower its diverse student population.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

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.
