Q: Is Freedom Elementary a good school?

Freedom Elementary ranks 2829 th of 5862 California elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 3 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Freedom Elementary is a public elementary school located in Lemoore, California, serving grades K-6 with a total enrollment of 416 students. It is part of the Lemoore Union Elementary School District, which is ranked 646 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Freedom Elementary faces several challenges, including lower student performance compared to the district and state averages, particularly in mathematics. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts/Literacy range from 36.84% to 61.82%, while the district's range from 43.45% to 50.39% and the state's from 42.8% to 47.04%. In mathematics, Freedom Elementary's proficiency rates range from 17.54% to 37.74%, lower than the district's 32.09% to 41.72% and the state's 34.31% to 45.64%. The school's performance in science is also lower than the district and state, with only 21.82% of students proficient or better. Additionally, Freedom Elementary has a higher chronic absenteeism rate of 17.0% compared to nearby Lemoore Elementary (22.9%) and P.W. Engvall Elementary (14.9%), and a higher percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds at 71.15%.

While Freedom Elementary is part of the same school district as Lemoore Elementary and P.W. Engvall Elementary, it generally performs worse on academic assessments, suggesting that there may be factors within the school or community that are contributing to the lower student performance. Interestingly, the nearby Pioneer Elementary, a public charter school, consistently outperforms Freedom Elementary and the Lemoore Union Elementary district on academic assessments, indicating that the charter school model may be more effective in this area. Additionally, Freedom Elementary's male students and Hispanic students perform better than their female and low socioeconomic status counterparts on the Smarter Balanced Assessments, suggesting the need for targeted interventions to address the specific needs of these subgroups.

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.
