Discovery Community Elementary

Summary:

Discovery Community Elementary is a public elementary school located in Waite Park, Minnesota, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 483. The school is part of the St. Cloud Public School District, which is ranked 349 out of 463 districts in Minnesota and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Discovery Community Elementary faces significant challenges, with a student population that is predominantly African American (51.97%) and Hispanic (19.67%), and an extremely high percentage (over 85%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. The school consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Minnesota elementary schools, with academic performance on MCA-III assessments significantly below the state and district averages across all grades and subjects. In comparison, nearby schools like Talahi Community Elementary and Madison Elementary have higher academic performance and lower percentages of economically disadvantaged students.

Despite the school's struggles, Discovery Community Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 11.5 to 14.3 over the past 3 years, which is lower than the surrounding schools. This could be an opportunity to implement targeted interventions and personalized learning strategies to support student growth and achievement. However, addressing the persistent achievement gaps between the school's African American and Hispanic students and their peers at the state level will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach that considers the unique needs and circumstances of the school and its community.

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.
