Burlington Elementary School

Summary:

Burlington Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 323 students in grades PK-5 in South Point, Ohio, which is part of the South Point Local School District. The school generally outperforms the district and the state of Ohio in academic proficiency, with 83.3% of 3rd graders proficient or better in Mathematics compared to 81.3% for the district and 62.1% for the state. However, Burlington Elementary has a higher chronic absenteeism rate of 21.7% compared to the state average.

Despite its strong academic performance, Burlington Elementary faces some challenges. The school has a noteworthy performance gap between male and female students, ranking 525 out of 1,466 Ohio elementary schools for female students but only 605 out of 1,485 for male students. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate has been steadily increasing over the past few years, from 5.5% in 2019-2020 to 21.7% in 2023-2024, which is a concerning trend that the school and district should address.

While Burlington Elementary outperforms the South Point Local district, it lags behind some of the higher-performing nearby schools, such as Chesapeake Elementary and Dawson-Bryant Elementary, which have 5-star and 4-star ratings, respectively, from SchoolDigger. By addressing the challenges it faces, Burlington Elementary can continue to improve and provide an even more robust educational experience for its 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.
