Statesville Road Elementary

Summary:

Statesville Road Elementary is a public magnet elementary school in Charlotte, North Carolina that serves 456 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade, with a diverse student population that is predominantly African American and Hispanic.

Despite its small class sizes, Statesville Road Elementary consistently underperforms academically compared to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools district and the state of North Carolina, with significantly lower proficiency rates in mathematics and reading. The school has a low statewide ranking, placing in the bottom 10-15% of North Carolina elementary schools, and its performance has declined over the years. Student subgroups, such as African American and low-income students, perform particularly poorly, suggesting the need for more tailored and equitable instructional strategies. Interestingly, some nearby schools, like Oaklawn Language Academy and Highland Renaissance Academy, demonstrate stronger academic performance, indicating that factors beyond just socioeconomic status may be contributing to the differences in student outcomes.

With over 99% of its students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Statesville Road Elementary faces significant challenges in terms of academic achievement. Despite its high poverty rate and low performance, the school's per-student spending is relatively low compared to some of the higher-performing nearby schools, raising questions about the adequacy of resources and the need for targeted funding to support the school's improvement efforts.

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.
