Neveln Elementary

Summary:

Neveln Elementary is a public elementary school in Austin, Minnesota, serving 339 students in grades 1-4. The school is part of the Austin Public School District, which is ranked 396 out of 463 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Neveln Elementary has a relatively diverse student population, with 40.71% White, 31.56% Hispanic, and 14.75% Asian students. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by MCA-III Math and Reading assessments, is generally lower than the state and district averages. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 30.26% of Neveln students were proficient or better in MCA-III Math, compared to 45.47% statewide and 26.59% in the Austin district. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Minnesota elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Neveln Elementary's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Asian students performing better than Hispanic and White students. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, reaching 74.34% in the 2022-2023 school year, which is significantly higher than the nearby Banfield Elementary (65.73%) and Southgate Elementary (64.52%). These factors suggest that Neveln Elementary faces challenges in providing a high-quality education to its diverse student population, and the school may need to address equity and achievement gaps within its community.

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.
