Ansley Elementary School

Summary:

Ansley Elementary School is a public elementary school in Ansley, Nebraska, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 121 students. The school is part of the Ansley Public Schools district, which is ranked 200 out of 212 districts in Nebraska and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Ansley Elementary School has a significantly higher percentage of white students (86.78%) compared to surrounding schools, its academic performance, as measured by NSCAS test scores, is generally lower than the state averages. For example, in 2022-2023, only 44% of 6th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 55%. Similarly, in 6th-grade math, only 33% of students were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 57%. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has declined significantly over the years, from being ranked 41st out of 488 Nebraska elementary schools in 2014-2015 to being ranked 380th out of 459 schools in 2022-2023.

Ansley Elementary School also faces socioeconomic challenges, with a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (54.55%), significantly higher than the surrounding schools. While the school's spending per student is relatively high, ranging from $20,378 to $21,507 over the past few years, this does not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes. In comparison, North Park Elementary School in Broken Bow, which is part of the Broken Bow Public Schools district, has higher test scores and a higher statewide ranking, despite a lower spending per student of $15,411.

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.
