Barbara McClintock STEM Elementary

Summary:

Barbara McClintock STEM Elementary is a public magnet elementary school in Pasco, Washington, serving 692 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Pasco School District, which is ranked 214 out of 247 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Barbara McClintock STEM Elementary's academic performance is generally below the state average, it outperforms the Pasco School District in most subject areas and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, 39.94% of all students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 33.13% for the district. However, the school's student group rankings suggest it may face challenges in supporting its diverse student population, with lower rankings for Hispanic students and English Language Learners compared to White students. Additionally, the school has seen a significant increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 50% in 2020-2021 to 66.62% in 2022-2023.

When compared to nearby schools in the Pasco School District, Barbara McClintock STEM Elementary generally performs better academically, particularly in English Language Arts. However, the school's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past several years, from 860 out of 1,107 Washington elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 902 out of 1,168 in 2023-2024. This suggests that the school may be struggling to keep pace with other elementary schools in the state, and the district should focus on developing targeted strategies to address the unique challenges faced by the school, such as supporting its diverse student population and ensuring equitable outcomes for all learners.

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.
