Summary:

Lyndon K-8 School is a public elementary and middle school located in West Roxbury, Massachusetts, serving 586 students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. The school is part of the Boston Public School District, which is ranked 305 out of 351 districts in the state.

Lyndon K-8 School consistently outperforms the Boston Public School District and the state of Massachusetts in MCAS Next Generation test scores across all grades and subjects. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, 42.86% of Lyndon K-8 students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 26.91% in Boston and 39.17% statewide. In Mathematics, 36.7% of Lyndon K-8 students were proficient or better, compared to 26.39% in Boston and 40.91% statewide. The school's performance is particularly strong among certain student subgroups, with its Hispanic students consistently ranking in the top 20% of Massachusetts elementary schools and its White students ranking in the top 30%.

While Lyndon K-8 School's academic performance is generally stronger than the nearby Sumner Elementary School and Conley Elementary School, which are also part of the Boston Public School District, the school's performance for students with disabilities and those from low socioeconomic backgrounds is weaker, ranking in the bottom 50% of Massachusetts elementary schools. This suggests that the school may need to focus more on addressing the needs of these underperforming subgroups to ensure equitable educational opportunities and outcomes for all students.

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.

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.
