Floyd Elementary

Summary:

Floyd Elementary is a public elementary school located in Floyd, Virginia, serving grades PK-7 with a total enrollment of 455 students. The school is part of the Floyd County Public Schools district, which is ranked 62 out of 130 districts in Virginia and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Floyd Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of white students (88.13%) compared to the surrounding schools, its performance has been consistently lower than its peers. The school has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past two school years, which is lower than the nearby Indian Valley Elementary and Callaway Elementary, both of which have 4-star ratings. Floyd Elementary's student performance on SOL (Standards of Learning) tests is generally lower than the state and district averages, particularly in mathematics and science.

Additionally, Floyd Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (77.36% in 2022-2023) compared to the surrounding schools, which range from 49.82% to 76.33%. Despite the school's lower performance, its per-student spending ($8,910 in 2020-2021) is higher than the state average and has been increasing over time, suggesting that factors beyond just funding may be contributing to the school's challenges. By learning from the practices and strategies of higher-performing schools in the area, such as Indian Valley Elementary and Callaway Elementary, Floyd Elementary may be able to address its significant challenges and improve student outcomes.

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.
