Meadowview Elementary

Summary:

Meadowview Elementary is a public elementary school in Farmington, Minnesota, serving 627 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. This high-performing school consistently ranks in the top 25% of Minnesota elementary schools, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Meadowview stands out for its exceptional academic performance, with proficiency rates in MCA-III Math, Reading, and Science that significantly exceed the district and state averages, particularly in 5th grade. The school's diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic, Asian, and multi-racial students compared to nearby schools, also performs exceptionally well, with the Hispanic and English Language Learner (ELL) students ranking in the top 25% and top 5% of Minnesota elementary schools, respectively. Additionally, Meadowview has a relatively low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, around 15-31% in recent years, and a lower student-teacher ratio ranging from 10.9 to 12.8, which may contribute to its strong academic performance.

Meadowview's consistent high performance, even with its diverse student population and relatively low percentage of economically disadvantaged students, is particularly impressive. The school's commitment to equity and inclusion, as evidenced by its strong support for traditionally underserved student populations, is a testament to its success. Compared to the nearby schools, Meadowview stands out for its higher academic proficiency rates, lower free and reduced lunch rates, and smaller class sizes, suggesting that it may be providing a more resource-rich and academically rigorous environment for its students.

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.
