Mollie B Hoover Elementary School

Summary:

Mollie B Hoover Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades 4-5 in Crawfordsville, Indiana, with a student population of 375. The school is part of the Crawfordsville Community Schools district, which is ranked 206 out of 381 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mollie B Hoover Elementary School faces several key challenges, including lower test scores compared to state and district averages, a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate, and a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates in ILEARN English Language Arts (32.59%) and Math (41.5%) were below the Crawfordsville Community Schools district averages (34.18% and 37.12%, respectively) and the state averages. The school's chronic absenteeism rate has ranged from 8.0% to 13.9% over the past few years, which is higher than the state average.

When comparing Mollie B Hoover Elementary School to other nearby schools in the same district, such as Laura Hose Elementary and Meredith Nicholson Elementary, the performance metrics are generally similar, with all three schools facing challenges in academic performance. However, when looking at higher-performing schools outside the Crawfordsville Community Schools district, such as Granville Wells Elementary and Ladoga Elementary, the gap in academic performance becomes more apparent, suggesting that factors beyond just the school district may be contributing to the challenges faced by Mollie B Hoover Elementary School.

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.
