Summary

Fulton Elementary School is a public elementary school in Springfield, Ohio, serving 424 students in grades K-6. The school is part of the Springfield City School District, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks 700 out of 828 districts in the state.

Fulton Elementary School faces significant challenges, with consistently low performance compared to both state and local standards. The school has had very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 26.4% to 43.1% over the past few years, which is much higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools in the district. Academically, Fulton's test scores are well below state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 7.5% of 5th-grade students proficient or better in Science, compared to 22.8% in the district and 63.4% statewide. The school also struggles to effectively serve its diverse student population, with particularly low rankings for subgroups like African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students.

While Fulton Elementary School spends approximately $10,010 per student, which is higher than some nearby schools in the Springfield City School District, its performance remains poor. The other elementary schools in the district, such as Kenton, Lincoln, and Lagonda, generally perform better than Fulton on key metrics, suggesting that Fulton may be an outlier within the district. The school's struggles indicate the need for a comprehensive review and implementation of targeted interventions to address the root causes of its poor performance.
