Summary:

Crums Lane Elementary is a public elementary school in Louisville, Kentucky, serving 373 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Jefferson County School District, which is ranked 141 out of 159 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Crums Lane Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Kentucky elementary schools, with a ranking of 652 out of 685 schools in the 2023-2024 school year and a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better in various subjects, is significantly lower than the Jefferson County and Kentucky state averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 23% of 3rd-grade students at Crums Lane Elementary were proficient or better in mathematics, compared to 31% in Jefferson County and 43% statewide. The school's reading proficiency rates are also low, with only 17% of 3rd-grade students and 30% of 4th and 5th-grade students meeting or exceeding proficiency standards in the 2023-2024 school year.

Crums Lane Elementary's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with the school's African American students performing relatively better than other subgroups. However, the school's performance for male students, low socioeconomic status students, and students with disabilities is significantly lower, with rankings in the bottom 20-30% of Kentucky elementary schools. The high percentage of students from low-income families at Crums Lane Elementary, with 77.21% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year, is likely a contributing factor to the school's academic challenges. Nearby schools, such as Carter Traditional Elementary, Schaffner Traditional Elementary, and Gutermuth Elementary, have higher academic proficiency rates and better overall rankings compared to Crums Lane Elementary, suggesting that factors beyond just the district-level challenges may be contributing to the school's struggles.

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.
