Park View Elementary

Summary:

Park View Elementary is a public elementary school in Cookeville, Tennessee, serving 439 students in grades PK-4 as part of the Putnam County School District.

Park View Elementary stands out for its diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic students (16.86%) compared to nearby schools. The school has also shown consistent improvement in its academic performance, moving from the bottom quartile statewide to the middle quartile in recent years. Park View's Hispanic students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds perform particularly well, ranking in the top quartile of Tennessee elementary schools. Additionally, the school maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 12.9 to 14.1 over the past three years.

While Park View Elementary performs well overall, some nearby schools, such as Algood Elementary and Prescott South Elementary, have even higher academic achievement and statewide rankings. This suggests that Park View could potentially benefit from learning from the practices and strategies of these higher-performing schools, particularly in areas where its own performance lags behind, such as science and the performance of White students.

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.
