Summary

David E. Robinson Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades 1-5 in the Caesar Rodney School District in Wyoming, DE, with 574 students and a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, the school's performance on Smarter Balanced Assessments and DeSSA tests is generally lower than the district and state averages across grade levels and subject areas, particularly in mathematics. However, the school's Hispanic and multi-racial students perform exceptionally well, ranking 3rd and 3rd, respectively, out of all Delaware elementary schools in those subgroups. The school also faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, which are significantly higher than the state average and on par with nearby schools in the district.

While the school's lower per-student spending compared to nearby schools in the district may be a factor in its academic performance, the significant disparities in student performance across different subgroups suggest the need for targeted interventions and support to address these achievement gaps. Addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism could also potentially lead to improvements in student learning outcomes at David E. Robinson Elementary School.
