Brookhaven Elementary

Summary:

Brookhaven Elementary is a public elementary school in Rockville, Maryland, serving around 410 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Montgomery County Public Schools district, which is ranked 7th out of 25 districts in Maryland and has a 4-star rating.

Brookhaven Elementary stands out for its high percentage of Hispanic students (59.27%), which is significantly higher than the surrounding schools, ranging from 26.53% to 84.84% Hispanic. The school also has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 65.17% to 73.41% over the past few years, much higher than the surrounding schools. However, Brookhaven's student performance on state assessments (MCAP) is generally lower than the Montgomery County and Maryland averages, especially in mathematics. Interestingly, the school performs exceptionally well for certain student subgroups, ranking in the top 30 out of 504 Maryland elementary schools for African American students and in the top 21 out of 115 schools for English Language Learners in MCAP Mathematics.

Despite the relatively high per-student spending at Brookhaven Elementary, ranging from $21,035 to $24,252 over the past few years, the school's academic performance lags behind the surrounding schools, such as Stonegate Elementary and Lucy V. Barnsley Elementary, which demonstrate significantly higher student performance on state assessments. This suggests that factors beyond racial composition and funding, such as effective instructional practices and support systems, may be more influential in driving student achievement at Brookhaven Elementary.

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.
