North View Elementary School

Q: Is North View Elementary School a good school?

North View Elementary School ranks 633 rd of 1010 Indiana elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

North View Elementary School is a public elementary school in Muncie, Indiana, serving 371 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Muncie Community Schools district, which is ranked 293 out of 381 districts in the state.

North View Elementary consistently outperforms the Muncie Community Schools district in academic achievement, with significantly higher proficiency rates on ILEARN tests in both English Language Arts and math. However, the school's performance is generally in the middle range compared to other Indiana elementary schools. North View also stands out for its diverse student population, with a higher percentage of African American, Asian, and multiracial students than the surrounding schools. Additionally, North View has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 68.73%, which is notably higher than nearby schools like Yorktown Elementary (36.01%) and West View Elementary (60.96%).

One significant challenge for North View Elementary is its high chronic absenteeism rate, with 24.6% of students chronically absent in the 2022-2023 school year. This is notably higher than the surrounding schools, such as Selma Elementary (7.5%) and Pleasant View Elementary (9.7%). Addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism could be an important focus area for the school and the Muncie Community Schools district. Despite these challenges, North View Elementary has the potential to continue improving and closing the gap with higher-performing schools in the region.

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.
