Randolph Elementary School is a public elementary school in Lincoln, Nebraska, serving 459 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Lincoln Public Schools district, which is ranked 130 out of 182 districts in the state.

Randolph Elementary School has consistently performed better than the district and state averages in academic subjects. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, 62.96% of Randolph's 3rd-grade students scored proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 58.04% for the Lincoln Public Schools district and 58.91% for the state of Nebraska. However, the school has experienced relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 18.6% to 25.6% over the past few years, which is higher than the district and state averages. Additionally, while Randolph's Hispanic students have performed well, ranking 21st out of 81 Nebraska elementary schools in 2021-2022, the school's special education students have struggled, ranking 49th out of 57 Nebraska elementary schools in 2022-2023.

When comparing Randolph Elementary School to nearby schools within the Lincoln Public Schools district, some interesting patterns emerge. For example, Eastridge Elementary School and Sheridan Elementary School have consistently outperformed Randolph in academic measures, ranking much higher in the state. This suggests that there may be opportunities for Randolph to learn from the practices and strategies of these higher-performing schools. Additionally, Randolph Elementary School's relatively high spending per student, ranging from $13,557 to $15,066 over the past few years, could indicate a focus on providing additional resources and support for students.

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.
