Horace Mann Elementary School

Summary:

Horace Mann Elementary School is a public elementary school in Shawnee, Oklahoma, serving 216 students in grades K-5. The school faces significant challenges, including consistently underperforming on standardized tests compared to state and district averages, and having a very high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

Horace Mann Elementary School's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are below the Shawnee School District and state averages. The school spends $8,984 per student, which is lower than the spending at some nearby schools, such as Jefferson Elementary School, which spends $10,326 per student. Despite these challenges, Horace Mann Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12:1, comparable to nearby schools.

Interestingly, Horace Mann Elementary School is located within a few miles of several higher-performing schools, such as Sequoyah Elementary and South Rock Creek Public School, suggesting that the issues at Horace Mann may be specific to the school and not necessarily reflective of the broader Shawnee School District.

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.
