Leroy Elementary

Summary:

Leroy Elementary is a public elementary school in Le Roy, Minnesota, serving 120 students in grades PK-6. While the school is part of the Leroy-Ostrander Public Schools district, which has a 1-star rating, Leroy Elementary faces several unique challenges compared to nearby schools.

Leroy Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of white students (94.17%) compared to neighboring schools like Grand Meadow Elementary (93.06% white), Kingsland Elementary (91% white), and Southland Elementary (84.88% white). Academically, Leroy Elementary's overall proficiency rates in Math (47.27%), Reading (29.09%), and Science (13.64%) are lower than the state averages, though its 4th-grade Math proficiency (71.43%) is significantly higher.

Leroy Elementary's male students, white students, and low socioeconomic status students all perform poorly compared to their peers in the state. Additionally, the school has seen a significant increase in its free and reduced lunch rate, from 20.49% in 2020-2021 to 38.33% in 2022-2023, indicating a growing population of students from low-income families. To improve student outcomes, the school and Leroy-Ostrander Public Schools district may need to focus on targeted interventions, professional development for teachers, and strategies to address the unique needs of their student population.

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.
