Open Quote Courtney Elementary has been an experience this year for my grandchildren in grades K-1. The teachers were very supportive and caring, and displayed exemplary skills in teaching. Transferring from another school during the school season was a big step for my grandchildren, but their teachers helped make the adjustment nearly effortless. The school does not have diversity where students are concerned, but is a great school to receive a well-rounded and professionally guided education. Close Quote

Open Quote Courtney Elementary School is a great school of caring and committed teachers. The location leaves the school without diversity in the student body, which is something parents might want to take into consideration. Otherwise, parents would be pleased at the education and attention their students receive at Courtney Elementary. Close Quote

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.
