Summary:
The Port Chester-Rye Union Free School District in New York is home to 4 elementary schools that serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance among these schools, with some standouts and others underperforming.
Park Avenue School and Thomas A Edison School are the top-performing elementary schools in the district, ranking 1637 and 1659 out of 2445 New York elementary schools, respectively. Both schools achieved a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and outperformed the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Math proficiency for most grade levels. In contrast, John F Kennedy Elementary School had the lowest proficiency rates across the board, with the 3rd-grade English Language Arts proficiency rate as low as 23.01%.
The data also reveals a potential correlation between socioeconomic status and academic achievement, as the schools with higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, such as John F Kennedy Elementary School and Thomas A Edison School, generally had lower academic proficiency rates. Additionally, the higher spending per student at Thomas A Edison School did not necessarily translate to better academic outcomes, suggesting that factors beyond just funding may be at play. Overall, the analysis highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to improve student achievement across the Port Chester-Rye Union Free School District.
