At Home Academy

Summary:

At Home Academy is an alternative public school in Saint Louis, Missouri, serving 64 students from kindergarten through 12th grade. The school is part of the Mehlville R-IX school district, which is ranked 95 out of 386 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

At Home Academy faces some significant challenges, particularly in terms of chronic absenteeism and academic performance. The school has had a high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 15.6% to 20.6% over the past three school years, which is much higher than the 37.7% rate at the nearby External Sites school. Academically, At Home Academy's performance, as measured by MAP test scores, is generally lower than the district and state averages, with only 12.6% of 8th-grade students proficient or better in mathematics, compared to 24.8% for the Mehlville R-IX district and 30.6% for the state of Missouri. However, the school did perform better than the district and state in 7th-grade mathematics, with 26.7% of students proficient or better.

Other notable findings include At Home Academy's relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 39.06% in the 2022-2023 school year, compared to just 9.05% at the nearby External Sites school. Additionally, At Home Academy has a very high student-teacher ratio of 42.6, significantly higher than the 1.2 ratio at the External Sites school. These factors, along with the inconsistent academic performance across grade levels and subject areas, suggest that At Home Academy may need to focus on improving its overall academic program and addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism to better support its students.

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.
