Enterprise Elementary School

Summary:

Enterprise Elementary School is a public elementary school in Federal Way, Washington, serving 448 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Federal Way School District, which is ranked 213 out of 247 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Enterprise Elementary has a diverse student population, with 27.01% White, 16.96% African American, 24.78% Hispanic, 15.62% Asian, and other racial groups represented. However, the school consistently ranks in the bottom quarter of Washington elementary schools, with performance on state assessments below the district and state averages across all grades and subjects. Interestingly, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with African American students ranking 77 out of 108, Hispanic students ranking 476 out of 694, and multi-racial students ranking 241 out of 252. Enterprise Elementary also has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 54.5% to 70.98% over the past 3 years, which is significantly higher than nearby schools like Brigadoon Elementary and Lakeland Elementary.

Despite the high spending per student at Enterprise Elementary, which has increased from $12,177 in 2019-2020 to $21,449 in 2021-2022, the school's academic performance has declined over the past few years. This raises questions about the effectiveness of the school's resource allocation and instructional practices, especially when compared to the higher-performing schools in the same Federal Way School District. The school's diverse student population and high rates of poverty may be contributing factors to its struggles, and further investigation into the specific challenges faced by the school community could provide valuable insights to support student success.

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.
