West View Elementary

Summary:

West View Elementary is a public magnet elementary school located in Burlington, Washington, serving grades K-6 with a total enrollment of 405 students. The school is part of the Burlington-Edison School District, which is ranked 194 out of 247 districts in Washington and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

West View Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom quarter of Washington elementary schools, with low academic performance across all grade levels and subject areas. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 27.18% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, and just 22.56% were proficient or better in Math, significantly below state and district averages. The school's performance is particularly low for Hispanic students, who make up 76.3% of the student population, as well as for students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 71.6% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the school's high spending per student, at $19,338 in the 2021-2022 school year, it has struggled to improve student outcomes.

Compared to nearby schools in the Burlington-Edison School District, such as Bay View Elementary and Allen Elementary, West View Elementary generally performs worse academically, with lower proficiency rates on standardized assessments. This suggests that the school may face significant challenges in addressing the needs of its predominantly Hispanic and economically disadvantaged student population, and may require targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes.

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.
