Eastside High

Summary:

Eastside High is a public high school located in Coeburn, Virginia, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 390. The school is part of the Wise County Public Schools district, which is ranked 2 out of 130 districts in Virginia and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Eastside High consistently ranks among the top high schools in Virginia, with a statewide ranking between 7 and 161 over the past 10 years. The school has maintained a 4 or 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of this period and performs exceptionally well for specific student subgroups, such as female students, male students, and low socioeconomic status students, ranking among the top schools in Virginia for these groups. Eastside High students consistently outperform the state and district averages on various SOL (Standards of Learning) assessments, particularly in subjects like Writing, Geometry, Algebra I, Biology, and English Reading. However, the school has a significantly higher percentage of white students (95.9%) compared to the surrounding schools, which have more diverse student populations.

While Eastside High outperforms the state and district averages on most metrics, it faces competition from other high-performing schools in the region, such as Union High and Central High, which are also part of the Wise County Public Schools district. The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (83.08% in 2022-2023) may indicate socioeconomic challenges that the school and district need to address to ensure continued academic success for all 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.
