Springdale Elementary

Summary:

Springdale Elementary is a public school in Tazewell, Tennessee, serving 363 students in grades K-8. The school is part of the Claiborne County School District, which is ranked 103 out of 139 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating.

Springdale Elementary's academic performance is mixed compared to the Claiborne County and Tennessee state averages. While the school's math and English language arts proficiency rates are generally higher than the Claiborne County average, they fall short of the state average. The school's performance also varies across different student subgroups, with male students and White students outperforming the overall student population. Springdale Elementary's per-student spending is slightly higher than the Claiborne County district average, and the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio.

Interestingly, Springdale Elementary has a highly homogeneous student population, with over 96% of students identifying as White, which is not representative of the broader state demographics. The school's ranking has fluctuated over the years, suggesting inconsistent performance. Nearby Joppa Elementary and Bean Station Elementary in the Grainger County district tend to outperform Springdale Elementary on many academic metrics, indicating that the school may have room 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.
