McMicken Heights Elementary

Summary:

McMicken Heights Elementary is a public elementary school located in SeaTac, Washington, serving 515 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Highline School District.

Despite having a highly diverse student population, with significant representation of African American, Hispanic, and Asian students, McMicken Heights consistently ranks in the bottom half of Washington elementary schools on state assessments. The school's academic performance is below the state and district averages across all grades and subjects, and it serves a predominantly low-income community, with around 77-78% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. While the school's spending per student is generally higher than nearby schools, and it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, these factors have not translated into improved student outcomes. For example, North Hill Elementary, another school in the Highline School District, consistently outperforms McMicken Heights on state assessments and has a higher statewide ranking.

The analysis of McMicken Heights Elementary suggests that the school faces significant challenges in effectively supporting its diverse student population and addressing the impact of socioeconomic factors on academic achievement. Addressing these root causes and implementing targeted interventions and support will be crucial in improving student outcomes and providing a high-quality education for all students at McMicken Heights.

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.
