Mann Elementary

Summary:

Mann Elementary is a public elementary school in Saint Louis, Missouri, serving 240 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the St. Louis City School District, which is ranked 338 out of 376 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mann Elementary consistently performs significantly below the state and district averages in standardized test scores. For example, in the 2022-2023 school year, only 3.3% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 15.9% in the St. Louis City district and 41.1% statewide. The school has a diverse student population, with a higher percentage of African American (47.92%) and Hispanic (16.25%) students compared to the nearby Betty Wheeler Classical Junior Academy, which has a majority white student population (53.42%). Additionally, Mann Elementary has an extremely high percentage of students (98.75%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Mann Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Missouri elementary schools, with a ranking of 817 out of 898 schools in the 2022-2023 school year. This places it among the lowest-performing schools in the state. The nearby schools, such as Mullanphy Botanical Gardens, Oak Hill Elementary, and Shenandoah Elementary, also perform poorly compared to the state, with similarly low test scores and statewide rankings. This suggests that the challenges faced by Mann Elementary are not unique and may be reflective of broader issues within the St. Louis City School District.

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.
