Republic Elementary School

Summary:

Republic Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Republic, Washington, serving 170 students from kindergarten to 6th grade. The school's academic performance has been a concern, with consistently lower standardized test scores in English Language Arts and Math compared to the state average. However, the school's Science proficiency rates are relatively stronger, exceeding the state average.

One of the key factors impacting the school's performance is the high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 76.47% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. While the school's ranking for low socioeconomic status students is relatively higher compared to other metrics, indicating better-than-expected performance for this group, the overall school ranking remains in the bottom half of Washington elementary schools, with a 2-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school's academic performance has shown a declining trend over the years, with proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Math decreasing from the 2021-2022 school year to the 2023-2024 school year. Additionally, there are disparities in student subgroup performance, with male students generally outperforming female students and White students performing better than the overall student population. Factors such as the fluctuating student-teacher ratio may also be contributing to the school's challenges.

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.
