Arbor Elementary School

Summary:

Arbor Elementary School is a public elementary school in Euclid, Ohio, serving 370 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Euclid City School District, which is ranked 650 out of 839 school districts in Ohio and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Arbor Elementary School faces significant challenges in improving student outcomes. The school has a significantly higher percentage of African American students (over 85%) compared to the state average, and it consistently performs below the state and district averages on Ohio State Tests across all grade levels and subjects. The school also experiences high rates of chronic absenteeism, reaching as high as 84.2% in the 2020-2021 school year. While the school's spending per student ($10,665 in 2018-2019) is higher than the state average, the continued low academic performance indicates that the current resource allocation may not be effectively addressing the school's challenges.

Interestingly, a nearby public charter school, Lakeshore Intergenerational School, has a similar racial makeup to Arbor Elementary School but appears to perform slightly better on some metrics, such as its 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. This could suggest that alternative educational models or approaches may be more effective in supporting the needs of the local student population. Overall, Arbor Elementary School's consistent low ranking and performance compared to state and district averages highlight the need for a comprehensive, data-driven approach to address the unique needs of the school's student population and implement effective strategies for improvement.

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.
