Bridgeview Elementary School

Summary:

Bridgeview Elementary School is a public elementary school located in South Charleston, West Virginia, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 421 students. The school is part of the Kanawha County Schools district, which is ranked 30th out of 55 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bridgeview Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of West Virginia elementary schools, with significantly below-average performance on state assessments in both Math and English Language Arts compared to the district and state averages. The school's student population is unique, with a higher percentage of White students (73.4%) and students identifying as two or more races (15.91%) compared to nearby schools. However, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with particularly concerning results for students with disabilities and those from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

Interestingly, several nearby schools, such as Weberwood Elementary, Kenna Elementary, and Ruthlawn Elementary, consistently outperform Bridgeview Elementary on state assessments and have higher statewide rankings. This suggests that the challenges faced by Bridgeview Elementary may not be solely due to factors outside the school's control. Additionally, the school's performance has declined over the past several years, indicating a need for significant interventions and improvements to address the underlying issues contributing to the academic struggles.

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.
