West Carroll Elementary School consistently underperforms the state and district averages in proficiency rates for TNReady assessments across all subject areas and grade levels.

When compared to nearby schools, such as South Gibson County Elementary School, West Carroll Elementary School's proficiency rates are over 30 percentage points lower in both Mathematics and English Language Arts.

The school's low performance and ranking may be influenced by factors such as the district's overall low ranking, the high percentage of white students, and the socioeconomic status of the student population. West Carroll Elementary School has experienced a concerning decline in proficiency rates across all subject areas and grade levels over the past few years, suggesting the need for a comprehensive review of the school's practices and resources to address these issues and improve student outcomes.

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.
