Loon Lake Elementary School

Summary:

Loon Lake Elementary School is a small public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in the Loon Lake School District in Washington. With just 118 students, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Washington elementary schools over the past decade, earning a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Loon Lake Elementary School faces significant academic challenges, with only 26.98% of students proficient in English Language Arts and 20.63% proficient in Math, well below the state averages of 52.63% and 41.68%, respectively. The school has a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 80.51% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, and relatively low per-student spending compared to nearby schools. In contrast, the Loon Lake Homelink Program, which is in the same district, outperforms Loon Lake Elementary across multiple subject areas and grade levels.

To address these issues, the school and district should consider implementing targeted interventions and support programs, increasing per-student funding, and collaborating with nearby high-performing schools like Arcadia Elementary and Deer Park Elementary to learn from their best practices. By addressing the school's unique challenges, Loon Lake Elementary can work to provide a more equitable and enriching educational experience for its students.

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.
