Prospect Elementary

Summary:

Prospect Elementary is a public school in Maxton, North Carolina, serving 848 students in grades PK-8. The school has a predominantly Native American student population, with over 90% of students identifying as Native American. Prospect Elementary is part of the Public Schools of Robeson County district, which is ranked 216 out of 242 districts in the state.

Despite its high percentage of Native American students, Prospect Elementary generally outperforms the district and state in academic measures like mathematics, reading, and science proficiency. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, Prospect Elementary's 3rd-grade mathematics proficiency rate was 72.9%, compared to 54.6% for the district and 62.7% for the state. However, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of North Carolina elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, suggesting its performance is not keeping pace with the state's top-performing schools.

Prospect Elementary's unique demographics and academic performance provide valuable insights. Its Native American students consistently perform at a higher level than the overall school, district, and state averages, ranking 7th out of 28 North Carolina elementary schools with a 4-star rating. However, the school's gifted and talented students perform poorly, ranking in the bottom 7% of North Carolina elementary schools. Nearby schools like Union Elementary and Oxendine Elementary have shown stronger academic performance in certain grade levels and subject areas, suggesting Prospect Elementary may face challenges in terms of funding and resources that impact its ability to further improve academic 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.
