Coleridge Elementary School

Summary:

Coleridge Elementary School is a public elementary school in Ramseur, North Carolina, serving students from kindergarten to 5th grade as part of the Randolph County School System. The school faces several challenges, including declining performance, significant gaps in student subgroup achievement, and a high-poverty student population.

Coleridge Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom third of North Carolina elementary schools, with a 1-star rating in the 2023-2024 school year. The school's performance on state assessments, particularly in reading and math, is significantly lower than the state and district averages. This is especially true for Hispanic students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, who perform significantly worse than their white counterparts. The school's high percentage of students (76.56%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch indicates a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Seagrove Elementary, Franklinville Elementary, and Bennett School, Coleridge Elementary School generally performs worse on state assessments, particularly in reading and math. To address these challenges, the school and Randolph County School System may need to implement targeted strategies, such as increased professional development for teachers, evidence-based instructional practices, and comprehensive support services for students and families.

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.
