New Code Academy Elementary

Public, Virtual Grades K-5

Summary

New Code Academy Elementary is a public virtual elementary school located in Bloomington, Minnesota, serving 89 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Bloomington Public School District, which is ranked 251 out of 448 districts in the state and rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Compared to nearby schools like Normandale Hills Elementary, Hillcrest Elementary, and Poplar Bridge Elementary, New Code Academy Elementary has a more diverse student population, with higher percentages of African American, Hispanic, and multiracial students. However, the school's academic performance on the MCA-III tests is significantly lower than the district and state averages, with only 24% of students proficient or better in math, compared to 39.11% for the district and 45.49% for the state.

Additionally, New Code Academy Elementary has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (59.55%), which is higher than nearby schools but lower than some other schools in the district. The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 6.3, suggesting more individualized attention, but this has not translated into higher academic achievement. These findings raise questions about the effectiveness of virtual learning, especially for younger students from diverse and economically disadvantaged backgrounds, and the need for additional support or resources to help these students succeed.
