Frazee Elementary School

Summary:

Frazee Elementary School is a public elementary school in Connersville, Indiana, serving 313 students in grades PK-6 as part of the Fayette County School Corporation. While the school has a higher percentage of white students compared to surrounding schools, it faces challenges with high poverty rates, chronic absenteeism, and lower academic performance.

Frazee Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 68.69% to 72.51% over the past 3 years, compared to the surrounding schools, which range from 45.83% to 78.37%. The school also has a higher chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 18.4% to 21.9%, compared to the 10.1% to 29.5% range of nearby schools. Academically, Frazee Elementary's test scores, as measured by the ILEARN assessments, are generally lower than the Fayette County School Corporation and the state of Indiana averages across all grade levels and subject areas.

Despite these challenges, Frazee Elementary has shown some strengths, such as its 5th-grade Math proficiency rate of 57.69% in 2022-2023, which was higher than the Fayette County School Corporation's 41.21% and the state's 40.8%. However, the school's overall performance has declined, with its statewide ranking dropping from 497 out of 1,027 Indiana elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 672 out of 1,010 in 2023-2024, while maintaining a consistent 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. With targeted interventions to address chronic absenteeism and improve student achievement, particularly in English Language Arts, Frazee Elementary could potentially enhance its academic outcomes and better serve its student population.

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.
