Hayward Elementary - 38

Summary:

Hayward Elementary - 38 is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in the Sioux Falls School District 49-5 in South Dakota, with 652 students. Despite its large size, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of elementary schools in the state, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Hayward Elementary faces significant challenges, including very high chronic absenteeism rates (ranging from 24.4% to 31.1%), low test scores (only 21.24% of students were proficient in English Language Arts and 17.65% in math), and a high percentage of students from low-income families (69.63% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch). The school struggles to serve its diverse student population, ranking in the bottom 10-15% of South Dakota elementary schools for White, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students, though it performs slightly better for African American students.

Interestingly, Hayward Elementary's performance is significantly worse than most of the other nearby elementary schools in the Sioux Falls district, such as Sonia Sotomayor Elementary and All City Elementary, which have much higher test scores, lower chronic absenteeism, and serve a more economically diverse student population. Despite the school's poor performance, Hayward Elementary spends a relatively high amount per student, ranging from $9,018 to $10,806 per student over the past few years, suggesting that factors beyond just funding may be contributing to the school's challenges.

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.
