Stratton Elementary

Summary:

Stratton Elementary is a public elementary school in Newport, Washington, serving 345 students in grades PK-4. The school is part of the Newport School District, which is ranked 179 out of 247 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Stratton Elementary faces several challenges, including a significantly higher percentage of white students (90.14%) compared to the state average (52.63%), and academic performance that is generally below state and district averages. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (37.25%) and Math (35.95%) are lower than the state averages (52.63% and 41.68%, respectively). Additionally, the school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with special education students performing relatively well, but white students and low-socioeconomic status students performing poorly. Stratton Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom third of Washington elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years.

Interestingly, the nearby Bess Herian Elementary and Kalispel Language Immersion School, while also serving high-poverty student populations, appear to outperform Stratton Elementary on academic measures. This suggests that factors beyond socioeconomic status may be contributing to Stratton's underperformance. To address these challenges, Stratton Elementary may need to review its curriculum, instructional practices, and resource allocation to identify areas for improvement and 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.
