Level Cross Elementary School

Summary:

Level Cross Elementary School is a public elementary school in Randleman, North Carolina, serving 437 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Randolph County School System. While the school consistently outperforms the district and state in math and science, it faces challenges with declining rankings, achievement gaps, and a growing population of economically disadvantaged students.

Level Cross Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of white students (83.07%) compared to nearby schools, and it outperforms the district and state in math and science proficiency, particularly in 3rd, 5th, and 5th-grade science. However, the school's reading proficiency lags behind the district and state averages. Additionally, the school has seen a sharp increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 46.06% in 2021-2022 to 64.07% in 2022-2023, indicating a growing population of economically disadvantaged students.

While Level Cross Elementary maintains a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, its statewide ranking has dropped from 488 out of 1,489 schools in 2020-2021 to 784 out of 1,502 schools in 2022-2023, suggesting the school may be struggling to keep pace with improvements in other schools across the state. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with the school ranking highly for male students and students with low socioeconomic status, but struggling with the performance of white students and gifted and talented students. Compared to nearby schools like Trindale Elementary and John R. Lawrence Elementary, Level Cross Elementary lags behind in terms of test scores and overall rankings.

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.
