Cecil Floyd Elementary

Summary:

Cecil Floyd Elementary is a public elementary school in Joplin, Missouri, serving 497 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Joplin Schools district, which is ranked 171 out of 386 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite its relatively small size, Cecil Floyd Elementary faces significant challenges. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Missouri elementary schools, with a ranking between 429 and 812 out of over 900 schools in recent years. It performs particularly poorly in the "Special Education Students" and "Disabled Students" categories, ranking in the bottom 10-20% of Missouri elementary schools. Additionally, the school has had a high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 18% to 25.9% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average. Cecil Floyd Elementary's test scores in Mathematics, Science, and English Language Arts are also consistently below the Joplin Schools district and Missouri state averages across all grade levels.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the Joplin Schools district, such as Soaring Heights Elementary, Eastmorland Elementary, and Royal Heights Elementary, generally perform better than Cecil Floyd Elementary on key metrics like test scores and statewide rankings. However, these schools still struggle to match the performance of the top-performing schools in the state, such as Eugene Field Elementary in the Webb City R-Vii district, which consistently ranks in the top 10% of Missouri elementary schools.

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.
