The school is part of the Newport News City Public Schools district, which is ranked 110 out of 130 districts in Virginia and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Joseph H. Saunders Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of minority students compared to the surrounding schools, with 49.11% African American and 27.38% Hispanic students. The school consistently ranks in the bottom 10% of Virginia elementary schools, with academic performance on state assessments significantly lower than the district and state averages. Additionally, over 89% of the students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. The school's per-student spending is also relatively low, ranging from $6,789 to $7,659 over the past few years, which is below the district and state averages.

The performance gap between Joseph H. Saunders Elementary and the surrounding schools, such as Richard T. Yates Elementary, Kiln Creek Elementary, and Deer Park Elementary, has been widening over time. These nearby schools have significantly higher academic performance, with proficiency rates that are 20-30 percentage points higher than Joseph H. Saunders Elementary in many subject areas. The combination of a high-poverty student population, low per-student spending, and the school's low ranking within the Newport News City Public Schools district and the state suggest that Joseph H. Saunders Elementary may be facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students.

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.
