Lookingglass Elementary School

Summary:

Lookingglass Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Roseburg, Oregon, with an enrollment of 137 students. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Oregon elementary schools over the past decade, receiving a 1-star rating from Winston-Dillard School District 116, which is ranked 120 out of 140 districts in the state.

Lookingglass Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the state and its own district averages on standardized tests, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels tested. The school has a very high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 74.45% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, much higher than the state average and the other nearby schools in the Douglas County School District 4. Additionally, Lookingglass Elementary spends $14,119 per student, lower than the $16,513 and $19,990 spent per student at the nearby McGovern Elementary and Eastwood Elementary schools, respectively.

The combination of high poverty, lower funding, and higher student-teacher ratios at Lookingglass Elementary may be contributing to the school's persistent underperformance compared to its peers. Addressing these systemic challenges and providing targeted support to the school and its students could be crucial for improving educational outcomes in the long run.

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.
