Clyde Elementary

Summary:

Clyde Elementary is a public elementary school serving 526 students in grades PK-5 in Clyde, North Carolina, which is part of the Haywood County Schools district. While the school has some areas of strength, such as higher-than-average 5th grade science proficiency, it faces challenges in maintaining its statewide ranking and addressing achievement gaps among its student subgroups.

Clyde Elementary's test scores are generally lower than the Haywood County and North Carolina averages, with only 42% of 3rd graders and 49.4% of 5th graders proficient or better in EOG/Reading. The school's subgroup performance is also mixed, ranking highly for Hispanic students but much lower for White and disabled students. Additionally, Clyde Elementary has an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, over 99%, which is significantly higher than nearby schools in the district, such as Riverbend Elementary.

While Clyde Elementary's spending per student is higher than the state average, it is lower than some of the nearby schools in the Haywood County district. The school's statewide ranking has also declined over the past several years, suggesting it may be struggling to keep pace with improvements at other schools in the state. Identifying and replicating the successful strategies of higher-performing schools in the district, while also tailoring support to the unique needs of Clyde Elementary's student population, could be key to improving the school's overall outcomes.

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.
