Bass-Hoover Elementary

Summary:

Bass-Hoover Elementary is a public elementary school in Stephens City, Virginia, serving around 600 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Frederick County Public Schools district, which is ranked 102 out of 130 school districts in the state.

While Bass-Hoover Elementary has a higher percentage of White students (63.67%) compared to nearby schools, its academic performance, as measured by SOL test scores, is generally lower than the district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, the school's 3rd grade math proficiency rate was 58.76% in 2023-2024, compared to the district's 62.93% and the state's 70.11%. Additionally, Bass-Hoover's statewide ranking has consistently been in the bottom half of Virginia elementary schools, currently rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. The school's performance also varies significantly among different student subgroups, with its Hispanic students ranking 529 out of 580 Virginia elementary schools, while its White students ranked 867 out of 979 schools.

Interestingly, the racial makeup of Bass-Hoover Elementary has become slightly less diverse over the past few years, with the percentage of White students increasing and the percentage of Hispanic students decreasing. The school's relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 40.45% to 41.83% in recent years, may be a contributing factor to its lower academic performance. In comparison, some nearby schools within the Frederick County Public Schools district, such as Armel Elementary and Greenwood Mill Elementary, have higher academic achievement and better statewide rankings.

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.
