Hopkins Lloyd Community School

Summary:

Hopkins Lloyd Community School is an elementary school in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, serving 135 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Milwaukee School District, which is ranked 417 out of 428 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's high per-student spending of $26,327 in the 2020-2021 school year, Hopkins Lloyd Community School has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Wisconsin over the past decade. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics for grades 3-5 ranged from 0% to 20% in the 2023-2024 school year, significantly lower than the Milwaukee School District and Wisconsin state averages. Additionally, the school has an extremely high chronic absenteeism rate, reaching as high as 87.7% in the 2021-2022 school year, and a student population that is predominantly from low-income families, with 92.86% to 97.04% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

When compared to nearby schools within the Milwaukee School District, such as Milwaukee College Preparatory School - Lola Rowe North Campus and Milwaukee College Preparatory School - Lloyd Street, both public charter schools, Hopkins Lloyd Community School significantly underperforms in academic assessments, with proficiency rates up to 60% in some subject areas at the nearby schools. Despite the school's efforts and high per-student spending, the academic performance and other key metrics at Hopkins Lloyd Community School have remained stagnant or even declined over the past decade, suggesting that a more comprehensive and long-term approach is needed to address the underlying issues facing the school and its community.

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.
