Vanlue Elementary School

Public Grades K-5

Summary

Vanlue Elementary School is a small public elementary school located in Vanlue, Ohio, serving grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 47 students. The school is part of the Vanlue Local School District, which is ranked 477 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Vanlue Elementary School stands out in several ways compared to nearby schools. It has a significantly smaller student population, ranging from 176 to 399 students at nearby schools, which can provide more personalized attention but may also limit educational opportunities. The school has also seen fluctuations in its chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 2.3% to 15.7%, which is an area of concern. Academically, the school's test score performance has been mixed, with some grades and subjects performing above the state average, while others are below. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 5th grade students scored 72.7% proficient or better in English Language Arts, which is above the state average of 70.6%, but only 63.6% proficient or better in Mathematics, which is below the state average of 57.4%.

Vanlue Elementary School's statewide ranking has also fluctuated over the years, ranging from a high of 532 out of 1,676 Ohio elementary schools in 2018-2019 to a low of 1,109 out of 1,687 in 2013-2014. This volatility in ranking suggests that the school's performance may be inconsistent or influenced by factors beyond just academic achievement. Despite these challenges, the school's white students and low-income students have performed relatively well compared to their peers statewide, indicating that the school may be effective in supporting these specific student populations.
