Randolph Elementary School

Q: Is Randolph Elementary School a good school?

Randolph Elementary School ranks 261 st of 459 Nebraska elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Randolph Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 154 students in grades PK-6 in Randolph, Nebraska. The school is part of the Randolph Public Schools district, which is ranked 70 out of 212 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Randolph Elementary School has a predominantly white student population, with 92.86% of students identifying as white, which is significantly higher than the state average and the nearby schools like Wayne Elementary School, Hartington-Newcastle Elementary, and Pierce Elementary School. The school's test scores are generally on par with or slightly above the state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics, but its performance has fluctuated over the years, with a high ranking of 35 out of 485 Nebraska elementary schools in 2012-2013 and a low ranking of 261 out of 459 in 2022-2023.

Randolph Elementary School has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 33.12%, which is higher than the nearby schools. However, the school has a higher spending per student, at $15,221 in 2022-2023, compared to the state average and the surrounding schools. This suggests that the school may be allocating more resources towards smaller class sizes and individual student support, which could potentially contribute to its academic performance, though it has not consistently translated to higher rankings compared to its neighbors.

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.
