Arrowpoint Elementary

Summary:

Arrowpoint Elementary is a public elementary school in Saint Louis, Missouri, serving 358 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Hazelwood School District, which is ranked 329 out of 376 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating.

Arrowpoint Elementary stands out from nearby schools like Commons Lane Elementary and Keeven Elementary in several key ways. The school has a significantly higher percentage of African American students, over 90%, compared to 87-95% at surrounding schools. Academically, Arrowpoint consistently ranks in the bottom 10-15% of Missouri elementary schools, with 0 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger and proficiency rates in Math, Science, and English Language Arts that are far below district and state averages. Additionally, over 98% of Arrowpoint's students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating high levels of economic disadvantage.

Despite Arrowpoint's high per-student spending of $14,696 and relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.8, the school has struggled to improve student outcomes. This suggests that the school may not be effectively allocating its resources, and that there are unique challenges or factors contributing to its persistent underperformance compared to other schools in the Hazelwood School District. The data highlights significant racial and socioeconomic disparities in educational outcomes that the district will need to address to provide high-quality education for all students.

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.
