Evergreen Elementary School

Summary:

Evergreen Elementary School is a public elementary school in Fort Lewis, Washington, serving 509 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Clover Park School District, which is ranked 183 out of 247 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Evergreen Elementary has a diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic (33.6%) and Pacific Islander (5.11%) students compared to the state average. However, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Washington elementary schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. While the school's Hispanic students have performed relatively well, ranking in the top 35% of Washington elementary schools for this subgroup, the school's White and military-connected students have performed poorly, ranking in the bottom 10% and bottom 5% of Washington elementary schools, respectively. Evergreen Elementary's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science are generally lower than the state and district averages, with some exceptions, such as the school's 5th-grade students performing better than the district and state in ELA.

Evergreen Elementary faces several challenges, including a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds (57.76% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch) and a significant population of military-connected students. While the school has seen a significant increase in per-student spending, this has not yet translated into improved academic outcomes. When compared to other elementary schools in the Clover Park School District, Evergreen Elementary generally performs worse than its peers, such as Rainier Elementary and Meriwether Elementary, which have higher rankings and better academic proficiency rates.

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.
