Winbourne Elementary School

Summary:

Winbourne Elementary School is a public elementary school in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, serving 293 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the East Baton Rouge Parish school district, which is ranked 77 out of 122 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Winbourne Elementary stands out for its significantly higher percentage of African American students (over 95%) compared to nearby schools, which have more diverse student populations. The school consistently ranks among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Louisiana, with academic performance on state tests well below the state and district averages in both math and English language arts. Over 93% of Winbourne's students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a very high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. The student-teacher ratio at Winbourne is also generally higher than surrounding schools, ranging from 12.6 to 18.3 students per teacher.

While nearby schools like Claiborne Elementary, Capitol Elementary, and Melrose Elementary also serve predominantly African American and economically disadvantaged student populations, they generally outperform Winbourne Elementary on academic measures. This suggests that Winbourne may be facing unique challenges that are hindering its ability to improve student achievement, which will require a targeted approach to support the school and its students.

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.
