Ashland Park/Robbins Elementary School

Summary:

Ashland Park/Robbins Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 806 students in grades PK-6 in a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood in Omaha, Nebraska. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-20% of Nebraska elementary schools over the past decade, with a current ranking of 428 out of 459 schools and a 0 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ashland Park/Robbins has a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students (74.69%) compared to the state average and nearby schools like Pawnee Elementary and Jefferson Elementary. The school's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates on the NSCAS assessments, is significantly below state and Omaha Public Schools district averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2022-2023, only 31% of 3rd graders were proficient in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 63%. Additionally, Ashland Park/Robbins has a very high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 79.18% to 85.65% over the past three years, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite the school's increased spending per student, from $12,933 in 2019-2020 to $17,638 in 2022-2023, this additional funding has not translated into improved academic outcomes. The school's performance on the NSCAS assessments is particularly low for Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Special Education students, suggesting that these subgroups are not receiving the necessary support and resources to succeed academically. Compared to nearby schools, Ashland Park/Robbins continues to lag behind, indicating that the challenges faced by the school are more severe and require targeted interventions to address the root causes of its persistent low 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.

Open Quote terrible school. way too many students, and a truly awful principal. lack of communication is common and accepted. if your child needs any special accommodations this is not the school for you. if you hope for your child to get an average or above average education this is not the school for you.

Open Quote I have all three of my children enrolled in this school, and we LOVE it! They have all the latest technology, best programs, excellent teachers and staff! Any concerns I have ever had I can send a simple email to the teacher or office staff and it's handled immediately.
The school is always clean and well maintained. Would recommend it 100%! Close Quote

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.
