Ann J Kellogg School

Summary:

Ann J Kellogg School is an elementary school serving grades 3-6 in Battle Creek, Michigan, with a student population of 226. The school is part of the Battle Creek Public Schools district, which is ranked 575 out of 610 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The data for Ann J Kellogg School paints a concerning picture. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Michigan elementary schools, with a ranking of 1470 out of 1486 schools in the 2023-2024 school year. Its academic performance is significantly below state and district averages, with only 3.85% of 3rd-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 11.5% proficient or better in Math in 2023-2024. The school also faces significant challenges, including high rates of chronic absenteeism (50.9% in 2022-2023) and a large majority (89.38%) of students coming from low-income families and qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as Post Franklin School, Verona Elementary School, and Fremont International Academy, also have low statewide rankings and high rates of chronic absenteeism and free/reduced lunch recipients. However, Fremont International Academy, a public magnet school, outperforms Ann J Kellogg School and the district in academic achievement. Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $16,120 at Ann J Kellogg School in 2022-2023, this increased funding has not translated into improved academic outcomes.

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.
