Winterset Elementary School

Summary:

Winterset Elementary School is a public elementary school in Columbus, Ohio, serving 298 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Columbus City Schools District, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Winterset Elementary stands out for its diverse student population, with a higher percentage of African American (26.17%) and Hispanic (8.72%) students compared to nearby schools. The school consistently outperforms the district and state averages in academic subjects like Science, Mathematics, and English Language Arts. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, 58.8% of 5th-grade students at Winterset Elementary were proficient or better in Science, compared to 31.5% for the district and 64% for the state. The school also has high rankings for its African American, English Language Learner, and Low Socioeconomic Status student subgroups.

However, Winterset Elementary faces a significant challenge with chronic absenteeism, which has increased from 18.3% in 2019-2020 to 53.5% in 2021-2022. This trend may impact the school's academic performance if not addressed. Compared to nearby high-performing schools in the Upper Arlington and Dublin City school districts, Winterset Elementary spends less per student and has a higher student-teacher ratio, which may contribute to the school's challenges.

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.
