Thrive Community School

Q: Is Thrive Community School a good school?

Thrive Community School ranks 193 rd of 413 New Mexico elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 3 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Thrive Community School is a public charter elementary school serving 111 students in grades K-7 in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The school is part of the Thrive Community School District, which is ranked 71 out of 119 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Thrive Community School has some strengths, including higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts (41% vs. 39%) and Science (41% vs. 36%) compared to the state average. However, its Math proficiency rate (17%) is lower than the state average (25%). The school also performs better for male students (ranked 198 out of 410 NM elementary schools) compared to female students (ranked 223 out of 393 NM elementary schools), but significantly worse for Hispanic students (ranked 308 out of 390 NM elementary schools) compared to White students (ranked 192 out of 293 NM elementary schools). Thrive Community School has a relatively low percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients at 25.23%, suggesting it may serve a more affluent student population compared to nearby schools.

While Thrive Community School outperforms the state average in some areas, it lags behind high-performing Carlos Gilbert Elementary, Acequia Madre Elementary, and Wood-Gormley Elementary, which are all ranked in the top 31 elementary schools in New Mexico. The significant performance gap between Hispanic and White students at Thrive Community School is concerning and indicates potential equity issues that need to be addressed. Additionally, the school's low Math proficiency rate is an area that requires attention and improvement.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Students eligible for free or discounted lunch at Thrive Community School

Compare

2023	111	9.1	12.1	25.2

Data source: National Center for Education Statistics, U.S. Dept of Education.

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.
