Elementary Schools in Oswego City School District

Summary:

The Oswego City School District in New York is home to 5 elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. Based on the available data, these schools show a mix of strengths and areas for improvement, with Minetto Elementary School standing out as the highest-performing school in the district.

Minetto Elementary School ranks 1369 out of 2445 New York elementary schools and consistently earns a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, the highest in the district. The school outperforms the district and state averages in several academic areas, including 4th and 5th grade English Language Arts (ELA) and 4th grade Math. In contrast, Charles E Riley Elementary School and FitzHugh Park Elementary School struggle the most, with lower proficiency rates across the board.

The data also reveals that schools with higher rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, such as FitzHugh Park Elementary, tend to have lower academic proficiency rates. Additionally, the significant variation in student-teacher ratios, from 10.3 at Minetto Elementary to 15.6 at Kingsford Park Elementary School, suggests that resource allocation and staffing decisions may play a role in the schools' performance. Overall, the Oswego City School District faces systemic challenges, as most of its elementary schools rank in the bottom half of New York schools, indicating the need for a comprehensive approach to improvement.
