Summary:
Avon School District 04-1 in South Dakota has one elementary school, Avon Elementary - 02, which serves grades K-4 with a total enrollment of 65 students. While the school has some positive metrics, such as a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate and a small student-teacher ratio, its overall academic performance on standardized tests is below the district and state averages.
Avon Elementary - 02 had 30.43% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts (ELA) and 52.18% proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the Avon School District 04-1 averages of 50.88% in ELA and 46.49% in Mathematics, as well as the state averages of 50.04% in ELA and 42.95% in Mathematics. The school's performance on these tests has been inconsistent over the past few years, with some grades performing better than others.
Despite the school's relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 1.5% and a student-teacher ratio of 8.8, which is lower than the state average, Avon Elementary - 02 has a relatively high spending per student of $16,887. This suggests that the school may need to focus on improving its instructional practices, curriculum, and resource allocation to better support student learning and achievement and bring its performance more in line with the district and state averages.
