Marmet Elementary School

Summary:

Marmet Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Marmet, West Virginia, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 112. The school is part of the Kanawha County Schools district, which is ranked 30 out of 55 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Marmet Elementary School stands out for its significantly higher percentage of white students compared to the surrounding schools, ranging from 91.07% to 99.15% over the past three school years. This lack of racial diversity is in contrast to the more diverse student populations at nearby schools like Piedmont Year-round Education and Holz Elementary School. Academically, Marmet Elementary has consistently underperformed compared to the Kanawha County Schools district and the state of West Virginia, with proficiency rates in Math and English Language Arts significantly lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. This has resulted in the school ranking in the bottom quarter of West Virginia elementary schools for the past several years, placing it in the bottom 10% statewide.

Marmet Elementary School's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as male students, African American students, Hispanic students, and students with low socioeconomic status. These subgroups consistently rank in the bottom quarter of their respective categories among West Virginia elementary schools, indicating that the school may not be effectively meeting the needs of all its students. This, combined with the school's lack of racial diversity and persistent academic underperformance, suggests that Marmet Elementary School faces significant challenges that require a comprehensive review and targeted interventions to address the identified areas of concern.

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.
