A H Snipes Academy of Arts/Des

Summary:

A H Snipes Academy of Arts/Des is an elementary public magnet school in Wilmington, North Carolina, serving 377 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. While the school is part of the New Hanover County Schools district, which is ranked 70 out of 242 districts in the state, A H Snipes Academy faces significant challenges in terms of academic performance and student demographics.

The school has a significantly higher percentage of African American students (60.74%) compared to the surrounding schools, such as Sunset Park Elementary and The International School at Gregory, which range from 24.52% to 47.63% African American students. Additionally, the school's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates in EOG (End-of-Grade) tests, is significantly lower than the district and state averages. For example, the school's 3rd-grade math proficiency rate was 30.9%, compared to 68.5% for the district and 62.7% for the state. This has resulted in the school consistently ranking in the bottom 10-15% of North Carolina elementary schools over the past several years.

Despite these challenges, A H Snipes Academy has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.3, which is lower than the surrounding schools and the district average. However, the school also has an extremely high percentage of students (over 99%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. These factors, combined with the school's focus on the arts and design, suggest that a comprehensive, data-driven approach to school improvement, with a focus on targeted interventions and support for the school's most vulnerable student populations, may be necessary to address the underlying issues and improve student 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.
