Lowell Elementary

Summary:

Lowell Elementary is a public elementary school in Everett, Washington, serving students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. With a diverse student population, the school has a higher percentage of Hispanic (30.82%) and Asian (7.89%) students compared to nearby schools.

Lowell Elementary's performance has been relatively stable, with a 2-3 star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years. While the school's Hispanic and English Language Learner (ELL) students have performed well, the school's overall performance on state assessments, particularly in math, is lower than the Everett School District and Washington state averages. The school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 52.27% to 63.98%, suggests that it serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, which may contribute to its lower academic performance.

Compared to nearby schools, Lowell Elementary's performance is generally lower than Garfield Elementary and View Ridge Elementary, which have higher proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Math. However, Lowell Elementary outperforms some other nearby schools, such as Madison Elementary and Hawthorne Elementary, which have lower proficiency rates and lower overall rankings.

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.
