West Hardin Elementary

Summary:

West Hardin Elementary is a public elementary school located in Adamsville, Tennessee, serving 230 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Hardin County School District, which is ranked 108 out of 139 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating.

West Hardin Elementary stands out for its significantly higher percentage of white students (90.43%) compared to the state average and nearby schools. The school consistently outperforms the Hardin County and Tennessee state averages in mathematics and science proficiency, but its English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates are generally lower than the state average. Interestingly, male students at West Hardin Elementary outperform female students, and low socioeconomic status (SES) students perform exceptionally well compared to other schools in the state.

While West Hardin Elementary generally outperforms the Hardin County district average, it is important to note that South Side Elementary in the Henderson County district consistently outperforms West Hardin Elementary and the state averages across multiple subject areas and grade levels. This suggests that factors beyond the district may be influencing student outcomes at West Hardin 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.

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.
