Greensville Elementary

Summary:

Greensville Elementary is a public elementary school in Emporia, Virginia, serving 833 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Greensville County Public Schools district, which is ranked 99 out of 130 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Greensville Elementary faces several challenges, including a predominantly African American student population (76.83%) and a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (over 100%). The school's academic performance is generally below the state and district averages, with a ranking between 721 and 939 out of over 1,100 Virginia elementary schools in recent years. However, the school's 3rd-grade students have consistently outperformed their peers in Mathematics, suggesting that the school has developed effective strategies in this subject area. The school's performance for its African American and English Language Learner student subgroups is relatively stronger compared to other subgroups, such as Hispanic and Disabled students.

Greensville Elementary's higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio compared to nearby schools like Capron Elementary, Totaro Elementary, and Meherrin Powellton Elementary may be contributing factors to its relatively stronger performance in Mathematics. However, the school's overall academic performance still lags behind the state and district averages, indicating that additional factors, such as instructional practices and school leadership, may also play a significant role in 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.
