Newby Memorial Elementary School

Summary:

Newby Memorial Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Mooresville, Indiana, serving grades PK-6 with a student population of 304. The school is part of the Mooresville Consolidated School Corporation district, which is ranked 119 out of 381 districts in Indiana and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Newby Memorial stands out from the surrounding schools in the district with its significantly higher percentage of white students (over 90%) and higher rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 54.55% to 60.2% over the past three school years. While the school's test scores are generally on par with or slightly below the district and state averages, it has some areas of strength, such as 54.95% of students being proficient or better in ILEARN/Math for All Grades in 2023-2024, which is notably higher than the district average of 45.27%. However, the school has experienced a concerning trend of increasing chronic absenteeism, rising from 11.3% in 2020-2021 to 24.8% in 2022-2023, which is significantly higher than the other nearby schools.

Compared to the other elementary schools in the Mooresville Consolidated School Corporation district, Newby Memorial's unique demographic profile and the relatively lower test scores in English Language Arts may suggest potential equity issues that need to be addressed to ensure all students have access to quality education. The higher spending per student at Newby Memorial, ranging from $7,386 in 2018-2019 to $10,400 in 2021-2022, may indicate a focus on resource allocation, but it is unclear how this translates to student outcomes.

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.
