East Meadow

Summary:

East Meadow is an elementary school in Granby, Massachusetts, serving 407 students from pre-kindergarten to 6th grade. The school's academic performance, as measured by MCAS Next Generation test scores, is generally lower than the state average and nearby schools. East Meadow's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from being ranked 292 out of 926 Massachusetts elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 566 out of 916 in 2023-2024, placing it in the bottom half of elementary schools in the state.

While East Meadow's performance is lower than the state average, it is not the lowest-performing school in the area. For example, Streiber Memorial School in Chicopee and Harris Brook Elementary School in Ludlow have lower MCAS Next Generation test scores and rankings than East Meadow. Additionally, East Meadow has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13 students per teacher, which is lower than the nearby schools.

East Meadow's performance on MCAS Next Generation tests varies significantly across different student subgroups. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school ranked in the bottom quarter of Massachusetts elementary schools for white students, but in the top half for low socioeconomic status students. This suggests that socioeconomic factors may play a role in the school's academic outcomes.

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.
