Norman Rockwell Elementary School

Summary:

Norman Rockwell Elementary School is a public elementary school in Omaha, Nebraska, serving 311 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Millard Public Schools district, which is ranked 27th out of 182 districts in the state.

Academically, Norman Rockwell Elementary has shown mixed performance compared to the district and state. While the school's 3rd grade English Language Arts proficiency rate was higher than the district and state, its overall proficiency rates in ELA and Math have generally lagged behind. However, the school has excelled in serving its special education and low-income student populations, ranking in the top 10% and 20% of Nebraska elementary schools in these subgroups, respectively. The school's higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio of 11.8 suggest a focus on supporting student learning, but the school's chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 15.4% to 21.5%, are a concern that may be impacting academic performance.

When compared to nearby top-performing schools in the Millard district, such as Ackerman Elementary, Willowdale Elementary, and Willa Cather Elementary, Norman Rockwell generally lags behind in academic proficiency and statewide rankings. This may be partly due to the school's higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students, at 47.59%, compared to the nearby higher-performing schools.

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.
