Elementary Schools in Dundee Central School District

The Dundee Central School District in New York has only one elementary school, Dundee Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of New York elementary schools in recent years, with significantly lower proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science compared to state averages.

Dundee Elementary School's performance on state assessments is a major concern, with only 8.33% of 3rd graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 42.6%. Math proficiency rates are also very low, with only 25% of 3rd graders and 4.65% of 5th graders scoring proficient or better, compared to state averages of 53.93% and 48.93%, respectively. Science proficiency for 5th graders is also low, at 11.36%, compared to the state average of 35%.

The school's high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 52.26%, suggests that it serves a predominantly low-income population, which may contribute to the academic challenges faced by the school. Despite the school's per-student spending of $14,476, the consistently low performance indicates a need to evaluate the effectiveness of resource allocation and utilization to address the persistent academic underperformance.
