While the school's test scores in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics are generally lower than the state averages, there are some bright spots, such as the 5th-grade ELA proficiency rate (59.3%) being higher than the state average (55.7%), and the 4th-grade Mathematics proficiency rate (61.4%) also exceeding the state average (51%). Interestingly, Hampton Elementary's test scores are often higher than the nearby Estill Middle School and Allendale-Fairfax Middle School, which are also in the Hampton School District or a neighboring district.

Hampton Elementary has a 100% free and reduced lunch rate, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among its student population, which is consistent with the nearby schools. However, the school spends $14,534 per student, which is higher than the nearby Estill Middle School ($13,930) and North District Middle School ($14,917). Additionally, Hampton Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.6, which is lower than the nearby schools. These factors suggest that the school may have additional resources and support for its students, which could be contributing to its relatively stronger performance in some areas.

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.
