This strong performance is noteworthy, as some nearby schools with similar or lower free and reduced-price lunch rates, such as Critzer Elementary and Pulaski Elementary, have lower academic proficiency rates. Additionally, Max Meadows Elementary's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.3 may contribute to its success, compared to higher ratios at nearby schools like Jackson Memorial Elementary and Sheffey Elementary.
