Grandview Elementary School

Summary:

Grandview Elementary School is a public elementary school in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, serving 280 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Chambersburg Area School District, which is ranked 381 out of 606 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Grandview Elementary has a more diverse student population compared to nearby schools, with a higher percentage of Hispanic (23.21%) and African American (7.14%) students. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by PSSA test scores, is generally lower than the state and district averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2022-2023, the school's proficiency rates in Math (40.3%) and English Language Arts (45.5%) were below the state and district averages. Additionally, Grandview Elementary has a high percentage of students (100%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

When comparing Grandview Elementary to other nearby schools in the Chambersburg Area School District, some interesting patterns emerge. Fayetteville Elementary and Guilford Hills Elementary have higher academic performance, with proficiency rates in Math and English Language Arts exceeding Grandview Elementary's. However, schools with similar high percentages of economically disadvantaged students, such as Stevens Elementary and Benjamin Chambers Elementary, also have lower academic performance compared to Grandview Elementary. This suggests that the school's challenges extend beyond just economic disadvantage and may require a closer examination of resource allocation and instructional practices to address the declining academic performance over time.

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.
