These schools demonstrate strong academic performance, with high proficiency rates in mathematics and English Language Arts. In contrast, other schools in the district, such as Main Street Elementary, struggle academically, with only 20% of 5th graders proficient or better in mathematics and 24.6% proficient or better in English Language Arts.
The data suggests a correlation between higher free/reduced lunch rates and lower academic performance, with schools like Claude Brown Elementary (23.06% free/reduced lunch) and Lincoln Elementary (29.51% free/reduced lunch) performing better than Main Street Elementary (62.44% free/reduced lunch). The district's mix of small and large elementary schools may also contribute to the variation in performance, presenting different challenges and opportunities for each school.
