Mabel Elementary

Summary:

Mabel Elementary is a public elementary school in Zionville, North Carolina, serving 156 students in grades PK-8. While the school is part of the highly-ranked Watauga County Schools district, Mabel Elementary faces significant challenges compared to its peers.

Mabel Elementary has a student population that is 96.79% white, which is significantly higher than the surrounding schools. Academically, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of North Carolina elementary schools over the past 6 years, with test scores in Math, Reading, and Science lower than the district and state averages. Additionally, 64.74% of Mabel Elementary students receive free or reduced-price lunch, a much higher rate than the nearby Parkway Elementary, Valle Crucis Elementary, and Hardin Park Elementary, which all outperform Mabel Elementary in terms of statewide rankings and test scores.

Despite having a higher per-student spending of $13,398 in 2018-2019 compared to the surrounding schools, Mabel Elementary's performance has declined over the years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 418 in 2016-2017 to 918 in 2023-2024. This suggests that the school may face challenges in effectively utilizing its resources to support student learning and growth. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive approach that considers the unique needs of Mabel Elementary's student population and the factors contributing to its declining performance.

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.

I feel there is a huge lack of parent communication. My step-daughter attends Mabel and no matter how involved we try to be her teachers barely give us the time of day. Close Quote

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.
