Krisle Elementary

Summary:

Krisle Elementary is a public elementary school in Springfield, Tennessee, serving 356 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Robertson County school district, which is ranked 113 out of 139 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Krisle Elementary stands out for its diverse student population, with a significantly higher percentage of African American, Hispanic, and multiracial students compared to nearby schools like Greenbrier Elementary and Coopertown Elementary. However, the school consistently underperforms the state and county averages in academic assessments, with only 21.8% of students proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 39.7% at the state level and 31.4% in the Robertson County district. Krisle Elementary also ranks particularly low for its subgroups, especially English Language Learners and Hispanic students.

The school's academic performance has been declining over the years, and it has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Tennessee elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. This may be due to the school's high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, as well as a lack of resources compared to nearby schools. While Krisle Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, its low spending per student suggests a need for additional educational materials, technology, and extracurricular programs to support its diverse student population and address the academic challenges it faces.

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.
