Malcolm C. Hursey Montessori

Summary:

Malcolm C. Hursey Montessori is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in North Charleston, South Carolina, part of the Charleston 01 school district. The school has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 44.81% White, 33.49% African American, 10.38% Hispanic, and 11.08% two or more races.

Academically, Malcolm C. Hursey Montessori has had a mixed performance compared to the district and state. While the school's 3rd grade English Language Arts proficiency rate was higher than the district and state averages, its overall proficiency rates in ELA and Mathematics were generally lower. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated, ranging from 297th out of 625 South Carolina elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 475th out of 643 schools in 2018-2019. Interestingly, the school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with male students outperforming female students. The school's high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage, may contribute to its relatively lower academic performance.

When comparing Malcolm C. Hursey Montessori to nearby schools, Orange Grove Charter School, located about 3.77 miles away, consistently outperforms the Montessori school and the district/state averages in both ELA and Mathematics proficiency rates. This suggests that the charter school model may be more effective in this area. However, as a Montessori school, Malcolm C. Hursey Montessori follows a unique educational approach that emphasizes hands-on learning and self-directed exploration, which may provide valuable learning experiences for students that are not fully captured by standardized test scores.

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.
