Anna L. Klein

Summary:

Anna L. Klein is an elementary school located in Guttenberg, New Jersey, serving grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 949 students. The school is part of the North Bergen School District, which is ranked 513 out of 615 districts in New Jersey and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Anna L. Klein faces significant challenges in serving its predominantly Hispanic (90.83%) and economically disadvantaged student population. The school's academic performance, as measured by NJSLA test scores, is consistently below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2022-2023, the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts ranged from 16.1% in 3rd grade to 46.6% in 8th grade, compared to the state averages of 42% to 55.3%. The school also experiences high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 7.6% in 2020-2021 to 18.2% in 2021-2022, which is significantly higher than the state average.

While the nearby schools in the West New York School District, such as Lincoln Elementary School, also serve predominantly Hispanic student populations, they generally outperform Anna L. Klein on academic measures. Additionally, Anna L. Klein's performance on NJSLA assessments varies significantly by student subgroup, with the school's Hispanic students and English Language Learners performing better than the overall school averages, but the school's female students, male students, and students with disabilities performing in the bottom quartile. The school's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past several years, suggesting the need for a comprehensive review and implementation of evidence-based strategies to improve student 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.
