Butcher-Greene Elementary

Summary:

Butcher-Greene Elementary is a public elementary school in Grandview, Missouri, serving 283 students in grades PK-5. The school faces significant academic and socioeconomic challenges compared to its surrounding schools and the state as a whole.

Butcher-Greene has a much higher percentage of minority students, with 45.94% African American and 29.68% Hispanic, compared to only 15.55% White. The school consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Missouri elementary schools, with low performance on state assessments. Additionally, Butcher-Greene has an exceptionally high percentage of students (73.13% to 84.18%) qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high concentration of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. Despite spending significantly more per student ($14,663 to $15,904) than the state and district averages, the school's academic performance remains significantly lower than its peers, such as Martin City Elementary, Belvidere Elementary, and Meadowmere Elementary.

While Butcher-Greene's overall academic performance is low, the school's ranking for African American and Hispanic student subgroups is significantly higher than its overall ranking, suggesting that the school is doing a relatively better job of serving these minority student populations compared to the state average. However, the school's declining enrollment, from 283 in 2022-2023 to 268 in 2021-2022, may have implications for its funding and resources. The high percentage of low-income students and the school's racial composition indicate the need for targeted interventions and additional support to address the significant academic and socioeconomic challenges faced by Butcher-Greene 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.
