Summary:
The city of Selkirk, New York has only one school, Albertus W Becker School, which serves grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 426 students. The school is part of the Ravena-Coeymans-Selkirk Central School District, which is ranked 660 out of 865 school districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Albertus W Becker School's performance on state assessments is mixed, with some grades and subjects performing better than the district and state averages, while others are lagging behind. For example, in 5th grade ELA, the school's proficiency rate (41.38%) is higher than the district (36.79%) but still lower than the state (43.68%). However, in 4th grade Math, the school's proficiency rate (59.57%) is higher than both the district (48.11%) and the state (58.03%). The school also has a relatively high percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients at 38.97%, which may impact academic performance.
Despite the school's mixed academic performance, it has a low student-teacher ratio of 10.6 for the 2022-2023 school year, which could be an advantage in providing more individualized attention and support for students. Additionally, the school's spending per student for the 2022-2023 school year was $16,131, which is relatively high, but it's unclear how this funding is being utilized to support student learning and achievement.
