Calvert Elementary

Summary:

Calvert Elementary is a public elementary school in Auburn, Nebraska, serving 577 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Auburn Public Schools district, which is ranked 87 out of 212 districts in the state.

Calvert Elementary stands out for its consistently strong academic performance, with students scoring above the state average in NSCAS tests for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. The school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 18.4, and a lower percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds compared to the state average. However, Calvert Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of white students (94.11%) than the state average, which may limit students' exposure to diversity. While the school's academic performance is generally stronger than nearby schools in the Johnson County Central Public Schools district, the Elementary School at Johnson outperforms Calvert Elementary in several academic metrics.

Despite its strong academic results, Calvert Elementary's statewide ranking has declined from 37th out of 450 Nebraska elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 164th out of 459 in 2022-2023. This could be due to the performance of other schools improving at a faster rate or changes in the assessment criteria used by SchoolDigger. Overall, Calvert Elementary is a high-performing school with a focus on academic excellence, but the lack of racial diversity and the declining statewide ranking may be areas for further investigation and improvement.

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.
