Bordeaux Elementary School

Summary:

Bordeaux Elementary School is a public elementary school in Shelton, Washington, serving students from kindergarten to 4th grade. With a diverse student population, the school has faced academic challenges, consistently underperforming compared to state and district averages in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency.

Bordeaux Elementary's academic performance is particularly concerning, with only 46.33% of students proficient in ELA and 41.71% proficient in Math, compared to the state averages of 52.63% and 41.68%, respectively. The school's performance is especially low in 4th grade, where just 34.04% of students were proficient in ELA and 20.65% in Math. Bordeaux's student subgroups also show varying levels of achievement, with Hispanic and low-income students struggling more than their peers. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Washington elementary schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Interestingly, Bordeaux Elementary's performance is generally lower than that of nearby schools in the Shelton School District, such as Mountain View Elementary and Evergreen Elementary. Additionally, the school has seen fluctuations in its per-student spending and student-teacher ratio, which may contribute to its academic challenges. Bordeaux has also experienced a gradual shift in its racial demographics, with the percentage of Hispanic students increasing in recent years, which may have implications for the school's needs and performance.

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.
