Central Elementary

Summary:

Central Elementary is a public school in Johnson City, Tennessee, serving 286 students in grades PK-8. The school is part of the Johnson City school district, which is ranked 88 out of 139 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating.

Central Elementary faces significant challenges compared to other schools in the area. The school has a much higher percentage of white students (87.41%) than surrounding schools, and its academic performance, as measured by state test scores, is consistently lower than the state and county averages. For example, in 2023-2024, Central Elementary's proficiency rates in Mathematics (25.2%) and English Language Arts (31.3%) were well below the state averages of 39.7% and 37.6%, respectively. This performance gap has been widening over the years. The school also has a higher percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, which likely contributes to its lower academic outcomes.

When compared to nearby schools, Central Elementary's performance is significantly lower. For instance, in 2023-2024, the proficiency rates in Mathematics and English Language Arts at Fairmont Elementary (a 5-star school in the Johnson City district) were 63.3% and 66.3%, respectively, compared to Central Elementary's 25.2% and 31.3%. Additionally, Central Elementary's per-student spending is lower than some of the higher-performing nearby schools, such as North Side Elementary and South Side Elementary.

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.

the principal and the office staff are some of the rudest people i've have come in contact with the kids are not allowed to talk during lunch the lights go out and they can't speak to one another these kids are in a classroom all day and the one time of the day they should be able to talk with one another they're not allowed to
when my child was in kindergarten she forget to get her spoon at lunch and they would not allow her to get one so she had to eat her mashed potatoes with her fingers how humiliatiing is that she forgot to get her milk one morning for breakfast and she was not allowed to get a milk so she had to eat cereal without something to drink i hate this school so much i use to go to this school and it was not like this i don't know what has happened there but something needs to change Close Quote

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.
