Wilkinson County Elementary

Summary:

Wilkinson County Elementary is a public elementary school in Woodville, Mississippi, serving 205 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Wilkinson County School District, which is ranked 130 out of 130 school districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Wilkinson County Elementary has consistently underperformed compared to the state average in MAAP (Mississippi Academic Assessment Program) test scores across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts ranged from 28.3% to 38%, while the state average ranged from 51.7% to 57.7%. In Mathematics, the school's proficiency rates were even lower, ranging from 1.9% to 20.9%, compared to the state average of 53.3% to 55%. The school's performance has declined over the years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 193 out of 394 elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 374 out of 390 in 2023-2024.

Despite the school's higher per-student spending of $8,390 in 2018-2019 and lower student-teacher ratio of 12.5 in 2022-2023, these resources have not translated into improved academic outcomes. Additionally, the school has a 100% free and reduced-lunch rate, indicating that all students come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, which may contribute to the academic underperformance. The lack of diversity, with a predominantly African American student population, may also limit the school's ability to provide a well-rounded educational experience.

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.
