Warner

Summary:

Warner is an elementary school located in Springfield, MA that serves students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade, with a total enrollment of 250 students.

One of Warner's key strengths is its consistent academic performance, which outpaces the Springfield district average across all grades and subjects. In 2023-2024, 28.26% of Warner students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 19.1% in the district, and 45.65% were proficient or better in mathematics, compared to 16.34% in the district. While Warner's science performance lags behind its ELA and math results, it still exceeds the district average. The school's strong performance is particularly notable for its African American and Hispanic students, who consistently outperform their peers in the district.

However, Warner's performance for special education and low-income students is more mixed, suggesting there may be room for improvement in addressing the needs of these subgroups. When compared to other nearby schools, such as Springfield Preparatory Charter School, which has even stronger academic results, Warner's performance is still commendable, but there may be valuable practices or approaches that the school could learn from. Overall, Warner appears to be a relatively strong-performing elementary school within the Springfield district, with particular strengths in academic achievement and equity for certain student subgroups.

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.
