Slocum Skewes School

Summary:

Slocum Skewes School is an alternative public school located in Ridgefield, New Jersey, serving grades 3-9 with a total enrollment of 666 students. The school generally performs well, particularly in English Language Arts (ELA) where proficiency rates range from 36.5% to 70.1% across all grade levels, exceeding the state average. However, the school's mathematics performance is more mixed, with some grade levels exceeding the state average while others fall below.

One notable strength of Slocum Skewes School is its exceptional Algebra I proficiency, with 100% of students meeting or exceeding the standard, significantly outperforming the district and state averages. In contrast, the school's science proficiency rates are more varied, with 5th-grade students performing better than the state average but 8th-grade students lagging behind. The school has also seen an increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, rising from 24.93% in 2020-2021 to 34.98% in 2022-2023, indicating a growing population of economically disadvantaged students.

When compared to nearby alternative schools, such as BelovED Community Charter School and the various schools within the Bergen County Special Services School District, Slocum Skewes School generally performs better in ELA and mathematics proficiency, particularly in the upper grades. However, the school faces challenges with chronic absenteeism, ranging from 13.5% to 21.9% over the past few years, which may require targeted interventions to improve student engagement and 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.
