Caryville Elementary

Summary:

Caryville Elementary is a public elementary school in Caryville, Tennessee, serving 630 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Campbell County School District, which is ranked 125 out of 139 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Caryville Elementary faces several challenges, including below-average academic performance. The school's proficiency rates in Mathematics (37.8%), English Language Arts (34.9%), and Science (30.3%) are all lower than the state averages. Additionally, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Tennessee elementary schools, with a ranking of 654 out of 1,008 schools in 2023-2024. The school's performance varies significantly across different student groups, with male students and special education students ranking in the bottom quartile of Tennessee elementary schools.

However, Caryville Elementary has some strengths, including a relatively low student-teacher ratio and the strong performance of its homeless student population, which ranks in the top 20% of Tennessee elementary schools for this subgroup. Nearby schools, such as Valley View Elementary and Jacksboro Elementary, have higher proficiency rates and better statewide rankings, suggesting that Caryville Elementary may need to focus on targeted interventions and support for its underperforming student groups to improve overall academic achievement.

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.
