Elementary Schools in Granville Central School District

The Granville Central School District in New York is home to two elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. Based on the available data, the academic performance of these schools is a cause for concern, as both Mary J Tanner Primary School and Granville Elementary School consistently underperform compared to state averages in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency.

The data reveals that both schools have significantly lower test scores than the state average, with proficiency rates well below 50% in most subject areas. For example, in 3rd grade ELA, Mary J Tanner Primary School scored 25.86% proficient compared to the state average of 44.89%. Granville Elementary School's test scores are also consistently below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. Additionally, both schools have relatively high rates of free and reduced lunch recipients, suggesting a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.

Despite the higher-than-average spending per student at both schools, the data does not indicate a clear relationship between spending and academic outcomes. Furthermore, Granville Elementary School's statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, from 1609 out of 2434 schools in 2021-2022 to 2140 out of 2445 schools in 2023-2024, suggesting a lack of progress or even a worsening of the school's performance. These findings highlight the need for a comprehensive approach to address the underlying challenges and improve educational outcomes in the Granville Central School District.
