Prescott Elementary School

Summary:

Prescott Elementary School is a public elementary school in Prescott, Washington, serving 125 students in grades K-5. The school has a predominantly Hispanic student population, with 69.6% of students identifying as Hispanic. Prescott Elementary is part of the Prescott School District, which is ranked 200 out of 247 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Prescott Elementary School faces several challenges, including low overall academic performance, with test scores in English Language Arts, Math, and Science consistently below state averages. The school also has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 71.2% to 78.1% over the past three years, significantly higher than the state average and nearby schools like Prospect Point Elementary and Walla Walla Center for Children and Families. However, the school's low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 11.3 to 14.5 over the past three years, suggests smaller class sizes and more individualized attention for students.

Despite the school's overall challenges, Prescott Elementary School's Hispanic students and students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds perform relatively well compared to their peers in the state. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school's Hispanic students ranked 25th out of 651 Washington elementary schools, and its low-socioeconomic status students ranked 284th out of 1,024 schools. This suggests that the school may be employing effective strategies to support these student subgroups, even as it works to improve its overall academic performance and address the variability in its funding, which has ranged from $9,221 per student in 2019-2020 to $24,869 per student in 2021-2022.

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.
