Charlotte Ave Elementary School

Summary:

Charlotte Ave Elementary School is a public elementary school in Nashua, New Hampshire, serving 333 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school consistently outperforms the Nashua School District and the state of New Hampshire in both mathematics and reading proficiency, making it a high-performing school in the region.

Academically, Charlotte Ave Elementary School shines, with 50% of students proficient in mathematics and 53% proficient in reading, compared to the district's 34% and 44% respectively. However, the school's science proficiency of 28% is slightly below the state average of 36%. The school's diverse student population, with 69.67% white, 18.02% Hispanic, and 5.41% Asian students, is a strength, and the school's strong performance for Hispanic students is particularly noteworthy, ranking 3rd out of 21 New Hampshire elementary schools in 2021-2022.

While Charlotte Ave Elementary School is a high-performing institution, the increasing percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 14.48% in 2020-2021 to 21.92% in 2022-2023, suggests a growing population of economically disadvantaged students. This may require additional resources and support to ensure the continued academic success of all students. Nearby schools, such as Fairgrounds Elementary School and Ledge Street School, have significantly higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating that they serve more economically disadvantaged communities.

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.
