Ramage Elementary

Summary:

Ramage Elementary is a public elementary school in Danville, West Virginia, serving 199 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Boone County Schools district, which is ranked 31 out of 55 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ramage Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of white students (97.49%) compared to the state and nearby schools, such as Buffalo Elementary School and Sherman Elementary School. While the school has shown mixed academic performance over the years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 151 to 326 out of 368-422 West Virginia elementary schools, it has performed relatively well in serving its special education and low socioeconomic status student populations, ranking in the top 25% and top 26% of West Virginia elementary schools, respectively, in these subgroups.

Ramage Elementary's declining performance, with its statewide ranking dropping from a high of 151 in 2023-2024 to a low of 326 in 2021-2022, suggests a need for improvement in overall academic achievement. However, the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 9.8 to 10 students per teacher over the past three years, and its per-student spending of $12,694 in 2018-2019, suggest that the school may have access to adequate resources and funding, which could be leveraged to address these challenges and better support all students, including its predominantly white 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.
