St Louis Lang Immersion School

Summary:

St Louis Lang Immersion School is a public charter elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the diverse city of Saint Louis, Missouri, with a student population that is 60% African American, 20% Hispanic, and 10.13% White.

While the school has struggled academically, ranking in the bottom half of Missouri elementary schools and receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, it has some unique characteristics that set it apart.

The school's spending per student has also increased over the years, reaching $15,111 in the 2021-2022 school year, which is higher than the nearby schools like Ames Visual/Perf. Arts, Jefferson Elementary, and Gateway Elementary, which have even lower academic performance and higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

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.
