Quitman Street School

Summary:

Quitman Street School is an elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the Newark Public School District in Newark, New Jersey. With a student population of 710, the school is located in a predominantly minority and economically disadvantaged area of Newark and has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in the state.

Quitman Street School faces significant challenges, including extremely low proficiency rates on state assessments, with only 1.9% of 3rd graders proficient in English Language Arts and 7.5% proficient in mathematics, compared to district averages of 19.1% and 42% statewide. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching as high as 54.4% in the 2020-2021 school year, and has a very high percentage of students (89.58%) qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a predominantly low-income student population. In contrast, nearby schools like Oliver Street School have significantly higher proficiency rates and lower chronic absenteeism.

The data suggests that Quitman Street School is facing systemic challenges that have not been adequately addressed, and the high percentage of students from low-income households likely contributes to the academic and attendance difficulties. While the nearby Gray Charter School and other charter schools in the area are outperforming the traditional public schools, addressing the issues at Quitman Street School will require a comprehensive and targeted approach, potentially involving collaboration with the community and educational policymakers.

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.
