Crim Elementary School

Summary:

Crim Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Bowling Green, Ohio, serving 353 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Bowling Green City School District, which is ranked 291 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Crim Elementary School has a diverse student population, with 64.31% White, 5.95% African American, 18.13% Hispanic, 1.98% Asian, and 9.63% two or more races. However, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, reaching 29.5% in the 2021-2022 school year, which is notably higher than the state average and nearby schools. Academically, Crim Elementary School's performance is mixed, with some subject areas and grade levels performing well, while others struggle. For example, the school's 5th-grade science proficiency rate was 71.2%, higher than the state average, but its 5th-grade math proficiency rate was only 37.3%, significantly lower than the district and state averages.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Kenwood Elementary and Conneaut Elementary, Crim Elementary School generally performs worse in academic measures. The school's statewide ranking has also steadily declined over the past several years, suggesting it is not keeping pace with the performance of other elementary schools in Ohio. To address these challenges, Crim Elementary School may benefit from targeted interventions and support to improve attendance and provide more tailored academic support for struggling 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.
