Gardner Park Elementary

Summary:

Gardner Park Elementary is a public elementary school in Gastonia, North Carolina, serving 521 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. While the school has a relatively diverse student population, it faces significant academic challenges, consistently underperforming compared to the Gaston County Schools district and the state of North Carolina.

Gardner Park Elementary's academic performance, as measured by End-of-Grade (EOG) test scores, is lower than the district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 3rd-grade math proficiency rate was 32.3%, compared to 54.2% for Gaston County and 62.7% for the state. The school has also consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of North Carolina elementary schools, earning a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. When compared to nearby schools like New Hope Elementary and Hawks Nest STEAM Academy, Gardner Park Elementary's academic performance is significantly lower.

One of the key factors contributing to Gardner Park Elementary's challenges is the high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 98.64% to 99.42% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch over the past three school years. This suggests that the school faces significant socioeconomic challenges that may be impacting academic achievement. Additionally, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with lower rankings for African American and Hispanic students, indicating the need for targeted interventions and support to address these disparities.

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.
