Wallace Elementary

Summary:

Wallace Elementary is a public school serving grades PK-8 in Wallace, North Carolina, with a student population of 1,147 and a high percentage of minority students. However, the school faces significant challenges, including consistently low academic performance, high poverty rates, and limited resources compared to nearby schools.

Wallace Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom 10-15% of North Carolina elementary schools, with proficiency rates in math, reading, and science that are significantly lower than the Duplin County Schools district and state averages. The school has an extremely high percentage of students (over 99%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a very low socioeconomic status of the student population. Additionally, Wallace Elementary has a higher student-teacher ratio and lower spending per student compared to nearby schools, such as Warsaw Elementary and Beulaville Elementary, which perform significantly better academically.

Despite being a low-performing school, Wallace Elementary has not shown significant improvement in its academic outcomes over the past several years. The performance gap between the school and the state/district averages has been widening, particularly for its African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner student subgroups. Addressing the systemic challenges, such as high poverty, high student-teacher ratio, and low spending per student, may be crucial in improving the educational outcomes for the students at Wallace Elementary.

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.
