Summary:

Blue Ridge Elementary's academic performance is mixed compared to state averages. While reading proficiency in grades 3-5 is above the state average, math proficiency in those grades is below average. Additionally, 5th-grade science proficiency is significantly lower than the state benchmark.

Notably, over 52% of Blue Ridge Elementary students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. This socioeconomic factor may contribute to the school's academic challenges and could require additional resources and support to address the needs of this student population. Overall, while Blue Ridge Elementary has some areas of strength, it also faces opportunities for improvement in math, science, and supporting its economically disadvantaged students.
