Summary

Marlatt Elementary is a K–5 school with 454 students in Manhattan, in the Manhattan-Ogden district. Its latest reported results show solid performance across the three tested subjects: 65% proficiency in English language arts (ELA), 64% in math and 58% in science. The most important finding is that Marlatt scored above both its district and the state in all three subjects.

Math is Marlatt’s clearest strength compared with nearby schools: it ranked second among the 10 district schools in both math and ELA, and second in math in each of the three tested grades. Its 64% math proficiency was 23 percentage points above the state, 15 above the district and 18 above the nearby-school average. ELA was 19 points above the state, 11 above the district and 9 above nearby schools’ average. Science is a relative soft spot—not a low result, but less exceptional locally: Marlatt’s 58% was 20 points above the state and 11 above the district, but only 4 above the nearby-school average, placing it fourth among district schools. Grade 4 ELA was its lowest grade-level result at 59%, though still above state and district rates. Amanda Arnold Elementary was the only listed nearby school with a higher SchoolDigger ranking.

Over four reported years, ELA proficiency rose 3 percentage points and math rose 2, while science fell 4; Marlatt’s gap over the state narrowed in all three subjects. SchoolDigger ranks Marlatt 88th out of 657 schools, at the 87th percentile with four stars—up 11 percentile points from the prior year, but below its earlier peak of 91. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of effectiveness for students receiving special education services places Marlatt at the 55th percentile, down from 83 the year before and below its overall 87th percentile. Its measure for students with low socioeconomic status is at the 65th percentile. Other context: chronic absenteeism was 8% versus 22% districtwide and 18% statewide; the student–teacher ratio was 15.2, above the nearby-school average of 13.7. The free/reduced-lunch rate was 30%, compared with a 53% average among nearby district schools; this is context, not an explanation for results.
