Madison Elementary

Summary:

Madison Elementary is a public elementary school in Mc Leansville, North Carolina, serving 221 students in grades K-5. The school faces significant challenges, with a diverse student population, consistently underperforming academic results, and a high percentage of students from low-income families.

Madison Elementary has a higher percentage of African American (42.53%) and Hispanic (16.74%) students compared to the state average, and an exceptionally high rate of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 92.02% to 98.64% in recent years. The school has consistently underperformed on standardized tests, with proficiency rates in Mathematics, Reading, and Science well below state and district averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 25% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the state average of 58.1%.

The challenges faced by Madison Elementary are not unique, as nearby schools such as Bessemer Elementary, Rankin Elementary, and Ronald E. McNair Elementary also have high percentages of students from low-income families and generally underperform compared to state averages. This suggests that the educational disparities in the local Guilford County Schools district may require targeted interventions and support to address the underlying factors contributing to the academic challenges faced by schools like Madison Elementary.

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.
