Batavia Elementary School

Summary:

Batavia Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 1,201 students in grades PK-5 in Batavia, Ohio, which is part of the Batavia Local School District. While the school generally performs on par with or slightly above state and district averages on Ohio State Tests, it faces several challenges, including a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism and inconsistent academic performance across different student subgroups.

Batavia Elementary's chronic absenteeism rate has risen sharply from 7.3% in 2019-2020 to 39.0% in 2021-2022, significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past several years, from 511 out of 1,610 Ohio elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 836 out of 1,577 in 2023-2024. When compared to nearby schools like Meadowview Elementary and Williamsburg Elementary, which are in higher-performing districts, Batavia Elementary generally performs on par or slightly below in terms of test scores and statewide rankings.

Batavia Elementary's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups. While the school ranks highly for gifted and talented students, it struggles with lower rankings for special education, low socioeconomic status, and minority student groups. To improve, the school and district should focus on addressing these issues and learning from the successes of higher-performing nearby schools.

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.
