Bannach Elementary

Summary:

Bannach Elementary is a public elementary school in Stevens Point, Wisconsin, serving 384 students in grades K-6. This school consistently outperforms the Stevens Point Area Public School District and the state of Wisconsin in academic proficiency across various subjects and grade levels.

Bannach Elementary stands out for its exceptional performance, particularly in 5th-grade English Language Arts (92% proficient or better) and 5th-grade Mathematics (82% proficient or better) - significantly higher than the district and state averages. The school also has relatively low chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 3.0% to 9.5% over the past few years, which is lower than the district and state.

This suggests that Bannach Elementary may have unique factors contributing to its success that could be worth exploring.

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.
