Oak Hill Elementary

Summary:

Oak Hill Elementary is a public elementary school in High Point, North Carolina, serving 393 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Guilford County Schools district, which is ranked 149 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating.

Oak Hill Elementary faces significant challenges, with a diverse student population that is predominantly African American (38.17%) and Hispanic (38.93%), and an extremely high percentage (over 99%) of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. The school consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of North Carolina elementary schools, with proficiency rates in Mathematics, Reading, and Science that are significantly lower than the district and state averages. When compared to nearby schools like Montlieu Academy of Technology, Northwood Elementary, and Kirkman Park Elementary, Oak Hill Elementary performs significantly worse academically.

Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio, Oak Hill Elementary's academic performance has declined over the past several years, with the school now ranking in the bottom 10% of North Carolina elementary schools. The school's high spending per student ($11,303 in 2018-2019) does not seem to translate into improved outcomes, particularly for subgroups such as Asian, African American, and Hispanic students, as well as English Language Learners and students with low socioeconomic status. These challenges suggest the need for targeted interventions and support to improve educational opportunities for the students at Oak Hill 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.
