Round Hill Elementary

Summary:

Round Hill Elementary is a public elementary school in Roanoke, Virginia, serving 719 students in grades PK-5 and part of the Roanoke City Public Schools district.

Round Hill Elementary is a low-performing school, consistently ranking in the bottom quarter of Virginia elementary schools and receiving a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance, particularly on SOL (Standards of Learning) tests, is significantly below the Roanoke City Public Schools and Virginia state averages across various subjects and grade levels. This is especially true for certain student subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Low Socio-Economic Status students, who perform in the bottom quarter or half of Virginia elementary schools. With an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, the school may face significant socioeconomic challenges that contribute to its academic struggles.

While the nearby schools in the Roanoke City Public Schools district, such as Fallon Park Elementary, Hurt Park Elementary, and Monterey Elementary, also perform poorly on academic measures, some schools in the area, like Highland Park Elementary and Virginia Heights Elementary, have significantly higher academic performance and better rankings compared to Round Hill Elementary and the district average, demonstrating that higher achievement is possible within the Roanoke City Public Schools system.

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.
