Norview Elementary

Summary:

Norview Elementary is a public elementary school in Norfolk, Virginia, serving 395 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Norfolk City Public Schools district, which is ranked 105 out of 130 districts in Virginia and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Norview Elementary faces significant challenges, with a student population that is 62.78% African American, compared to the state average of 23.4%. The school consistently ranks in the bottom 10% of Virginia elementary schools, with low performance on SOL (Standards of Learning) tests across all grade levels and subject areas. Additionally, over 97% of Norview's students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. While the school's spending per student is higher than the state average, it is lower than some of the nearby schools, such as Crossroads PreK-8 School, Willard Elementary, and Suburban Park Elementary, which generally perform better academically despite serving similar student populations.

Norview Elementary's performance has been declining over the past several years, with the school dropping from the bottom 20% to the bottom 10% of Virginia elementary schools. The school's low rankings and poor test scores are particularly concerning for Hispanic and low socioeconomic status students, who rank in the bottom 50% of Virginia schools for these subgroups. Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio, the school's academic performance indicates that other factors, such as instructional quality or school climate, may be contributing to the poor outcomes. Addressing these challenges will be crucial for improving student learning and achievement at Norview Elementary.

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.
