Lebanon Elementary School

Summary:

Lebanon Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 359 students in grades PK-5 in Lebanon, Kentucky, which is part of the Marion County School District. While the district is ranked 63 out of 159 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating, Lebanon Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to the county and state averages on the Kentucky Summative Assessment (KSA) in core subjects like Mathematics, Reading, and Science.

The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with male students generally outperforming female students, and African American and Hispanic students performing better than their White peers. Students with disabilities and those from low-socioeconomic backgrounds also lag behind their counterparts. Lebanon Elementary School's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from being ranked in the top half of Kentucky elementary schools in 2015-2016 to now being ranked in the bottom third in 2023-2024. The school also has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 72-75% in recent years, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Nearby schools in the Marion County district, such as West Marion Elementary and Calvary Elementary, generally outperform Lebanon Elementary School on academic measures, with higher proficiency rates, better statewide rankings, and lower percentages of students eligible for free/reduced lunch. The school's per-student spending has also decreased from $13,605 in 2017-2018 to $12,012 in 2018-2019, which is below the state average, potentially contributing to the academic challenges faced by the school.

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.
