Dibrell Elementary

Summary:

Dibrell Elementary is a public school in Mc Minnville, Tennessee, serving 390 students in grades PK-8 as part of the Warren County School District, which is ranked 119 out of 139 districts in the state.

Dibrell Elementary faces significant academic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom half of Tennessee elementary schools over the past 7 years. The school's performance on state assessments is significantly below the state and district averages across all subjects and grade levels, particularly for its Hispanic and White student subgroups, which rank in the bottom 40% and bottom 25% of Tennessee elementary schools, respectively. However, the school's performance for low socioeconomic status (SES) students is better, ranking in the top 20% of Tennessee elementary schools in 2021-2022.

Nearby schools, such as Morrison Elementary, Hickory Creek School, and Eastside Elementary, generally outperform Dibrell Elementary on academic measures, with higher proficiency rates and better statewide rankings, despite having similar student demographics. This suggests Dibrell Elementary may need to review its instructional practices and resource allocation to address the achievement gaps and improve overall student outcomes.

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.
