Fayette Elementary School

Summary:

Fayette Elementary School is a public elementary school in Fayette, Ohio, serving around 220 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the Fayette Local District, which is ranked 476 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Fayette Elementary School has shown mixed academic performance compared to the state and nearby schools. While the school performs well in some subjects and grade levels, such as 3rd and 4th grade math, it struggles in others, like 5th and 6th grade English Language Arts. The school has also seen a steady increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 4.2% in 2020-2021 to 11.3% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the state average. However, the school's student-teacher ratio has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 7.3 to 13.7 students per teacher, which is generally lower than the nearby schools like Delta Elementary School and Evergreen Elementary School.

Fayette Elementary School's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from a high of 496 out of 1,610 Ohio elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 800 out of 1,577 in 2023-2024, with a consistent 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's performance varies significantly among different student subgroups, with female students and low socioeconomic status students performing better than their male and higher-income counterparts, respectively. Additionally, the school's spending per student ($10,901 in 2018-2019) is higher than the state average, but it's unclear how this funding is being utilized to improve student outcomes.

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.
