Summary:
The Cosmopolis School District in Washington state consists of a single school, Cosmopolis Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade. The school's performance has declined in recent years, with its statewide ranking dropping and its SchoolDigger rating decreasing from 3 stars to 2 stars.
Cosmopolis Elementary School's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (45%), Math (38.75%), and Science (47.62%) are all below the state averages of 52.63%, 41.68%, and 49.73%, respectively. Despite higher-than-average spending per student ($18,783) and a lower student-teacher ratio (11.4) compared to the state, the school's academic performance continues to lag behind. This suggests that factors beyond just funding and staffing may be contributing to the school's challenges.
The school serves a population with a higher level of economic disadvantage, with 41.82% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This socioeconomic factor may be a contributing factor to the school's lower academic performance, as research has shown that socioeconomic status can have a significant impact on student outcomes. Overall, the data indicates that Cosmopolis Elementary School is facing significant challenges in maintaining and improving student achievement, and further investigation and targeted interventions may be necessary to address the root causes of the school's struggles.
