Barnesville Elementary School

Summary:

Barnesville Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 544 students in grades PK-4 in Barnesville, Ohio, which is part of the Barnesville Exempted Village School District. The school consistently outperforms the state average in both math and English language arts proficiency for 3rd and 4th grade students, with 73.7% and 88.8% of students, respectively, scoring proficient or better in math in 2023-2024, compared to state averages of 62.1% and 67.2%.

Barnesville Elementary also performs particularly well for certain student subgroups, ranking 156 out of 1,484 Ohio elementary schools for low socioeconomic status students and 84 out of 824 for disabled students. However, the school has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 4.0% in 2019-2020 to 32.9% in 2021-2022, which is an area of concern. Compared to nearby schools, Barnesville Elementary generally outperforms schools like Bellaire Elementary and Shenandoah Elementary in terms of test scores and school rankings, but some schools, such as St. Clairsville Elementary, have higher overall rankings and performance.

Interestingly, Barnesville Elementary's spending per student ($8,858 in 2018-2019) is on the lower end compared to some nearby schools, such as Beallsville Elementary ($15,024) and Woodsfield Elementary ($15,776), and the school has a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 20.5, which is higher than some nearby schools. However, Barnesville Elementary's free and reduced lunch rate of 39.52% is lower than some nearby schools with higher poverty levels, such as Buckeye Trail Elementary (66.1%) and Beallsville Elementary (61.54%).

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.
