Summary:
The city of Rosedale, New York is home to 5 elementary schools, including 4 public schools and 1 public charter school. The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance and student demographics across these schools.
The standout school in the area is Success Academy Charter School - Rosedale, which consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in New York and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. This school's test scores are significantly higher than the state and district averages, with over 90% of students proficient or better in math for several grade levels. In contrast, the lowest-performing schools are Gordon Parks School (The) and PS/Middle School 138 Sunrise, which rank in the bottom 25% of New York elementary schools and have 1-star and 2-star ratings, respectively.
The data suggests that school performance is closely tied to socioeconomic factors, as the highest-performing school has the lowest free/reduced lunch rate, while the lowest-performing schools have the highest rates. Additionally, there are significant disparities in spending per student and student-teacher ratios across the schools, which may contribute to the differences in academic outcomes. These findings highlight the need for further investigation and policy considerations to ensure equitable access to quality education for all students in the New York City Geographic District #29 and the Success Academy Charter School - Rosedale district.
