West Point School

Summary:

West Point School is an elementary school in West Point, Utah, serving 1,086 students in grades PK-6 as part of the Davis School District. The school consistently outperforms the district and state averages on standardized tests, with a 3rd-grade English Language Arts proficiency rate of 56.7% compared to 54.1% for the district and 46.7% for the state.

West Point School has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 7.5% to 10.3% over the past three years, which is significantly lower than some nearby schools like Holt School (40.8%) and Monticello Academy West Point (28.2%). However, the school's student-teacher ratio of 25.1 is higher than the surrounding schools, which range from 19.9 to 25.8.

While West Point School outperforms the district and state, some nearby schools, such as Parkside School and Syracuse Arts Academy - North, also demonstrate strong academic performance with higher test scores and lower free/reduced lunch rates. The significant differences in these metrics between West Point School and some of the nearby schools may indicate potential equity issues, as students from lower-income families may not have equal access to the resources and opportunities available at West Point School.

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.
