Milliken Park Elementary School

Summary:

Milliken Park Elementary School is a public elementary school in Fremont, Nebraska, serving grades PK-4 with a student population of 291. The school faces significant challenges, consistently performing below the Fremont Public Schools district and the state of Nebraska in standardized test scores for both English Language Arts and Mathematics.

Milliken Park Elementary School has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 69.07% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. The school's student population is also more racially diverse than the surrounding schools, with a higher percentage of Hispanic students (51.2%) and a lower percentage of White students (46.39%). Despite the school's challenges, it has a relatively high per-student spending of $14,803, which is higher than the state average. However, this increased funding does not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes for the students.

When compared to other elementary schools in the Fremont Public Schools district, Milliken Park Elementary School consistently performs worse academically. For example, the nearby Howard Elementary School had significantly higher proficiency rates in ELA and Mathematics for 3rd and 4th graders in the 2022-2023 school year. The high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds and the racial diversity of the student population at Milliken Park Elementary School may be contributing factors to the school's academic challenges.

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.
