R.V.Traylor Elementary

Summary:

R.V. Traylor Elementary is a public elementary school in Lordsburg, New Mexico, serving grades PK-4 with a total enrollment of 155 students. While the school has maintained a relatively low student-teacher ratio, it has consistently underperformed compared to state and district averages in academic achievement.

According to the key insights, R.V. Traylor Elementary's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (35%) and Mathematics (12%) were lower than the state averages (39% and 25%, respectively) in the 2023-2024 school year. This trend has been observed over the past few years, with the school's rankings among New Mexico elementary schools declining from a high of 18th in 2015-2016 to 299th in 2023-2024. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with male students and white students performing significantly worse than their peers.

Despite the school's low student-teacher ratio, which could be a potential strength, the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (ranging from 58.71% to 100% over the past three school years) suggests that the school may face significant socioeconomic challenges that could impact student learning and well-being. The school may need to collaborate with community organizations and social services to provide additional support and resources for these students and their families.

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.
