Avon Avenue School

Summary:

Avon Avenue School is an elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the Newark Public School District in New Jersey, with a student population of 563 in a predominantly African American and Hispanic neighborhood. Despite its challenges, the school's performance and metrics provide valuable insights for parents and educators.

Avon Avenue School has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in New Jersey, with a significantly higher percentage of African American students (84.72%) compared to surrounding schools. The school's academic performance is well below state and district averages, with only 10.3% of 3rd graders proficient in English Language Arts and just 2.5% proficient in mathematics. Additionally, Avon Avenue School struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching as high as 52.1% in the 2020-2021 school year, and an exceptionally high percentage of students (80.28%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

While Avon Avenue School's performance is consistently among the lowest in the state, some nearby schools, such as South 17th Street School and Hawthorne Avenue School, have shown relatively better academic outcomes, particularly in English Language Arts. This suggests that factors beyond just the socioeconomic status of the student population may be contributing to the differences in performance. Additionally, Avon Avenue School's spending per student ($12,937 in 2018-2019) is higher than the state average, and the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio (13.7 in 2022-2023), indicating that additional funding and smaller class sizes alone may not be the sole solution to improving the school's performance.

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.
