G D Rogers Garden- Bullock Elementary

Summary:

G D Rogers Garden- Bullock Elementary is a public elementary school in Bradenton, Florida, serving 504 students in grades PK-5 and part of the Manatee School District.

The school faces significant challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, well below average standardized test scores, and a high percentage of students (73.4% to 77.98%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Compared to nearby schools, G D Rogers Garden- Bullock Elementary performs similarly to Just For Girls Elementary School and Manatee Elementary School, which also struggle with low performance and high absenteeism. In contrast, Louise R Johnson K-8 School Of International Studies and William Monroe Rowlett Academy For Arts And Communication have significantly higher test scores and lower chronic absenteeism, suggesting potential best practices that could be replicated.

Despite having a relatively high per-student spending of around $15,000 and a low student-teacher ratio ranging from 12.2 to 13.4, the school's resources do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes. This suggests the need for a closer examination of how resources are being utilized and the implementation of effective strategies to address the school's challenges and support student success.

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.
