Freeman Elementary School

Summary:

Freeman Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Rockford, Washington, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 368 students. The school is part of the Freeman School District, which is ranked 46 out of 247 school districts in Washington and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Freeman Elementary consistently ranks among the top 25% of elementary schools in Washington, with strong academic performance across all grade levels and subject areas. In 2023-2024, 71.3% of all students at Freeman Elementary were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 52.63% statewide and 56.95% in the Freeman School District. The school's performance is particularly impressive in math, with 76.85% of all students proficient or better, compared to 41.68% statewide and 49.6% in the district. Freeman Elementary also consistently ranks among the top 25% of Washington elementary schools for female students, white students, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

While Freeman Elementary's academic excellence is commendable, the school's predominantly white student population (88.04%) and relatively low percentage of students from minority racial/ethnic backgrounds may be an area for further exploration. Additionally, the school's lower percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (24.73%) and higher per-student spending ($15,336 in 2021-2022) suggest that the school may benefit from a more advantaged socioeconomic profile compared to some of the nearby schools, such as Greenacres Elementary, Sunrise Elementary, and McDonald Elementary School.

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.
