Summary:
The Orchard Prairie School District is home to a single elementary school, Orchard Prairie Elementary, serving students from preschool through 5th grade. Located in a predominantly white, middle-class community, the school has seen its state-wide ranking fluctuate in recent years, but has maintained a consistent academic performance with both strengths and areas for improvement compared to state-wide averages.
Orchard Prairie Elementary boasts a high percentage of white students (89.19%) and a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (6.76%). The school's test scores show a mixed performance, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math for all grades exceeding state-wide averages, but some grade-level scores falling below the state average. The school's higher-than-average spending per student and low student-teacher ratio of 10.8 to 1 suggest that the district is allocating significant resources to support student learning.
While Orchard Prairie Elementary has maintained a consistent performance, the data highlights potential areas for improvement, such as increasing diversity and inclusion within the school community and addressing lower-than-average proficiency rates in certain grade levels and subject areas. Further analysis and comparison to other schools or district-wide trends could provide additional insights to guide the school's continuous improvement efforts.
