Lacroft Elementary School

Summary:

Lacroft Elementary School is a public elementary school in East Liverpool, Ohio, serving 346 students from kindergarten to 4th grade. The school is part of the East Liverpool City School District, which is ranked 617 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lacroft Elementary School faces significant challenges, with consistently high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 35.2% to 46.0%, well above the state average and nearby schools like North Elementary (35.5%) and Crestview Elementary (21.9%). Academically, the school's proficiency rates on Ohio State Tests are consistently lower than the state and district averages, with 3rd-grade math proficiency at just 25.8% compared to the state average of 62.1% and the East Liverpool City average of 32.9%. The school's rankings for specific student groups, such as female students, male students, white students, special education students, and low socioeconomic status students, are consistently in the bottom quartile of Ohio elementary schools.

Despite the challenges, some nearby schools, such as North Elementary, perform significantly better, with higher proficiency rates and a higher 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The high rates of chronic absenteeism and lower academic performance at Lacroft Elementary School may be linked to socioeconomic factors, as the school serves a community with a high percentage of low-income families. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive approach to improve student engagement, attendance, and academic support at the school.

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.
