Honey Run Elementary

Summary:

Honey Run Elementary is a public elementary school in Quicksburg, Virginia, serving 564 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Shenandoah County Public Schools district, which is ranked 53 out of 130 districts in the state.

Honey Run Elementary stands out for its higher percentage of Hispanic students (22.16%) compared to nearby schools, which typically have lower Hispanic populations. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by SOL test scores, is generally lower than state and district averages, particularly in English Reading and Science. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 427th out of 1,109 Virginia elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 822nd out of 1,114 schools in 2023-2024. Additionally, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Hispanic students performing better than White students.

Honey Run Elementary faces several challenges, including declining academic performance, achievement gaps among student subgroups, and a high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with over 70% receiving free or reduced-price lunch. When compared to nearby schools, such as Shenandoah Elementary, Honey Run Elementary generally underperforms in academic measures. Addressing these issues through targeted interventions and support could help the school improve and better serve its diverse student population.

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.
