Central Valley Virtual Learning

Q: Is Central Valley Virtual Learning a good school?

Central Valley Virtual Learning ranks 532 nd of 1168 Washington elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 3 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Central Valley Virtual Learning is a public elementary school serving grades K-8 in Spokane Valley, Washington, with 108 students. While the school has a predominantly White student population, its academic performance lags behind nearby physical schools in the Central Valley School District.

In the 2023-2024 school year, Central Valley Virtual Learning ranked 532 out of 1,168 Washington elementary schools and received a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, lower than the 4-star rating of Liberty Lake Elementary and the 3-star rating of Riverbend Elementary. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (45.68%) and Math (30.86%) are also significantly lower than the district and state averages. Notably, the school's White student subgroup ranked 710 out of 1,009 Washington elementary schools, indicating they are performing well below their peers statewide.

The virtual learning environment at Central Valley Virtual Learning may be a contributing factor to its lower academic performance compared to nearby physical schools. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students (67.59%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. To improve student outcomes, the school and district may need to closely examine their instructional practices, support systems, and resource allocation to better meet the needs of all students.

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.
