Eastside Elementary School

Summary:

Eastside Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Cynthiana, Kentucky, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 411 students. The school is part of the Harrison County School District, which is ranked 124 out of 159 districts in Kentucky and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Eastside Elementary School has had a fluctuating performance over the years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 230 to 625 out of around 700 Kentucky elementary schools. The school's overall SchoolDigger rating has been 2 or 3 stars in the past, but it has dropped to 1 star in the most recent school year (2022-2023). Academically, Eastside's proficiency rates in Mathematics and Reading are generally lower than the Harrison County and Kentucky state averages. The school's performance is particularly low in subjects like Science and Social Studies, where its proficiency rates are significantly below the county and state averages. Additionally, Eastside's performance on various student subgroups, such as Female, Male, Special Education, and Low Socio-Economic Status, is generally lower than the state averages for those subgroups.

Interestingly, Eastside Elementary School's performance is lower than the nearby Westside, Northside, and Southside Elementary Schools within the Harrison County School District. These nearby schools have higher academic proficiency rates, better student subgroup performance, and higher SchoolDigger rankings compared to Eastside. The school's declining performance over time and the potential factors influencing its challenges, such as the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, warrant further investigation and targeted interventions to improve student outcomes.

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.
