Green Ridge Elementary

Summary:

Green Ridge Elementary is a public elementary school in Green Ridge, Missouri, serving 187 students in grades K-6. The school is part of the Henry County R-I school district, which is ranked 229 out of 376 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Green Ridge Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of white students (91.44%) compared to nearby schools, which have more diverse student populations. The school's academic performance has been mixed, with rankings ranging from 316th to 173rd out of 901 Missouri elementary schools in recent years. The school serves a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with free and reduced lunch rates fluctuating between 38.12% and 62.7%. However, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 9.8 to 10.5 in recent years, and has seen an increase in per-student spending, from $9,332 in 2018-2019 to $12,014 in 2021-2022.

When compared to the state averages, Green Ridge Elementary's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better in MAP assessments, is generally below the state averages in both mathematics and English language arts. Compared to nearby schools, the school's performance is mixed, outperforming some schools in certain grade levels and subject areas while underperforming in others. The lack of racial diversity at Green Ridge Elementary, with over 91% of students identifying as white, is noteworthy and raises questions about the school's ability to provide a diverse and inclusive learning environment.

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.
