Daybreak Primary

Summary:

Daybreak Primary is an elementary school located in Battle Ground, Washington, serving grades PK-4 with a student population of 542. The school is part of the Battle Ground School District, which is ranked 87 out of 247 districts in Washington and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Daybreak Primary's academic performance, as measured by SBAC test scores, is generally lower than the Battle Ground School District and the state of Washington averages. The school's Hispanic students have performed relatively well, ranking 274 out of 651 Washington elementary schools in the 2023-2024 school year, with a 3-star rating. However, the school's White students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds have performed poorly, ranking 779 and 758 out of 1,009 and 1,024 Washington elementary schools, respectively, with 1-star ratings. Daybreak Primary's higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio compared to the surrounding schools suggest that the school is investing resources in its educational program, but this investment does not seem to be translating into consistently higher academic performance across all student subgroups.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Pleasant Valley Primary, Glenwood Heights Primary, Tukes Valley Primary, and Maple Grove Primary, Daybreak Primary's academic performance is generally lower. When compared to schools outside the Battle Ground School District, such as La Center Elementary, Salmon Creek Elementary, and Sunset Elementary School, Daybreak Primary's performance is mixed, with the school outperforming some but lagging behind others, particularly Salmon Creek Elementary.

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.
