Jonesville Elementary

Summary:

Jonesville Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Jonesville, North Carolina, which is part of the Yadkin County Schools district. With a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, the school has seen a significant decline in its statewide ranking over the past decade, dropping from 465 out of 1,390 elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 1,129 out of 1,505 in the most recent 2023-2024 school year.

Jonesville Elementary stands out for its higher percentage of White students (56.23%) compared to the surrounding schools, which tend to have more diverse student populations. However, the school's test scores are consistently lower than the Yadkin County Schools district and the state of North Carolina averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, only 15.8% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in Reading, compared to 39.4% for the district and 48.7% for the state. Additionally, Jonesville Elementary has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 64.39% to 82.26% over the past three school years, which is significantly higher than the surrounding schools in the Yadkin County district.

When compared to other elementary schools in the Surry County, Wilkes County, and Yadkin County districts, Jonesville Elementary generally performs worse on state assessments and has a higher percentage of students from low-income families. This suggests that the school may face unique challenges compared to its peers, and addressing these issues will be crucial for improving student outcomes and better serving the 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.
