Lynnhaven Elementary

Summary:

Lynnhaven Elementary is a public elementary school in Virginia Beach, Virginia, serving 362 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Virginia Beach City Public Schools district, which is ranked 27th out of 130 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Lynnhaven Elementary stands out for its diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 25.97% White, 36.74% African American, 19.06% Hispanic, 1.38% Asian, and 16.57% two or more races. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by SOL (Standards of Learning) test scores, is generally lower than the district and state averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 52.08% of 3rd-grade students were proficient or better in SOL Mathematics, compared to 75.86% for the district and 70.11% for the state. Lynnhaven's statewide ranking has fluctuated, ranging from 426th out of 1,114 Virginia elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 900th out of 1,105 in 2018-2019, with a current ranking of 521st and a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lynnhaven Elementary faces some unique challenges, including a high percentage of students (74.03%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, significantly higher than nearby schools like Kingston Elementary, which has a rate of only 10.45%. Additionally, the school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with its White students ranking 70th out of 979 Virginia elementary schools, while its African American students rank 315th out of 588. These disparities suggest that Lynnhaven may need to address issues of equity and opportunity gaps to improve overall 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.
