Summary:
The Lindenhurst Union Free School District in New York is home to 6 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 5th grade. The data reveals notable differences in academic performance and resource allocation across these schools, highlighting the importance of examining school-level metrics rather than relying solely on district-wide information.
The William Rall School stands out as a top performer, consistently exceeding district and state averages in ELA and Math proficiency rates for 3rd, 4th, and 5th-grade students. This school also boasts a smaller student-teacher ratio of 10.7, suggesting smaller class sizes. In contrast, the Daniel Street School outperforms the district and state in 3rd and 4th-grade Math assessments, while also having the highest spending per student at $25,913.
The data also reveals significant variability in other key metrics, such as free and reduced lunch rates, ranging from 36.52% at Daniel Street to 51.82% at William Rall, and student-teacher ratios, which vary from 8.2 at Alleghany Avenue School to 11.6 at West Gates Avenue School. These differences suggest that factors beyond just district-level policies and resources may be influencing student outcomes at the individual school level, warranting further investigation to ensure equitable distribution of funding and staffing across the Lindenhurst Union Free School District.
