Huntington Elementary School

Summary:

Huntington Elementary School is a public elementary school in Lincoln, Nebraska, serving 372 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Lincoln Public Schools district, which is ranked 138 out of 212 districts in Nebraska and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Huntington Elementary has a more diverse student population compared to nearby schools, with a higher percentage of minority students. However, the school consistently underperforms the district and state averages in standardized test scores, with only 42% of 3rd graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 62% for the district and 63% for the state. The school also has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 81.18% to 83.5% over the past three school years, indicating a high proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. Despite the relatively high per-student spending at Huntington Elementary, ranging from $16,445 to $20,320 over the past four school years, the school's academic performance has not improved.

The challenges faced by Huntington Elementary suggest the need for a comprehensive review and implementation of targeted interventions to address the root causes of the school's struggles and improve student outcomes. Factors such as teaching quality, curriculum, and support services may be more influential in driving student success than class size, as Huntington Elementary's lower student-teacher ratio compared to nearby schools, such as Hartley Elementary School and Campbell Elementary School, does not seem to translate into better academic 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.

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.
