Justice Elementary School

Summary:

Justice Elementary School is a small public elementary school serving grades PK-4 in Logan, West Virginia, with a student population of just 107 as of the 2022-2023 school year. However, the school faces significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance, a declining statewide ranking, and a student population that is overwhelmingly white compared to the state and surrounding schools.

Justice Elementary has struggled academically, with proficiency rates in math and English language arts that lag behind the Logan County Schools district and the state of West Virginia. For example, in 2023-2024, only 37.5% of 3rd graders were proficient in math, compared to 53.2% statewide. The school's statewide ranking has declined from a high of 69th out of 408 schools in 2014-2015 to 327th out of 368 schools in 2023-2024, placing it in the bottom 10-15% of West Virginia elementary schools. Justice Elementary also faces challenges across various student subgroups, with rankings for female, male, white, special education, and low socioeconomic status students all in the bottom third of the state.

When compared to other elementary schools in the Logan County district, Justice Elementary consistently underperforms. For example, Logan Elementary and Buffalo Elementary have significantly higher academic proficiency rates and statewide rankings. The high free/reduced lunch rate of 60.58% at Justice Elementary also indicates that the school serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, which can create additional barriers to student learning and achievement.

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.
