Summary:

Bradley Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Mount Hope, West Virginia, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 354 students. The school is part of the Raleigh County Schools district, which is ranked 12th out of 55 districts in West Virginia and is rated 4 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Bradley Elementary School stands out in several ways. It has a higher percentage of White students (86.16%) compared to nearby schools like Stratton Elementary (39.78%) and Beckley Elementary (30.62%). Academically, Bradley Elementary's performance is generally on par with or slightly below the district and state averages, but it outperforms some nearby schools in certain subject areas and grade levels, such as 3rd grade Mathematics and 5th grade English Language Arts and Science. Additionally, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 13.1 to 15 students per teacher, which is lower than the surrounding schools.

While Bradley Elementary School has maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years, it has shown strong performance in certain student subgroups, such as ranking 31st out of 187 West Virginia elementary schools for African American students and 11th out of 218 for multi-racial students in the 2016-2017 school year. However, the school's performance for students with disabilities has been relatively low, ranking in the bottom 25% of West Virginia elementary schools in recent years. The school's percentage of free and reduced-lunch recipients has also decreased, indicating a potential shift in the socioeconomic makeup of the student population.

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.
