Summary:
The Sandy Creek Central School District has only one elementary school, Sandy Creek Elementary School, which serves grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 393 students. While the school's 5th-grade performance in ELA and Science is above the state average, its overall academic performance in ELA and Math is generally lower than the state averages, indicating a need for improvement, particularly in the lower grades.
The school's ranking and rating have declined over the past three school years, going from a 1-star rating in 2021-2022 to a 2-star rating in the current 2023-2024 school year. This suggests that the school faces challenges in maintaining and improving its academic outcomes. Additionally, the school serves a population with a relatively high level of economic disadvantage, with 49.36% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
Despite the school's higher per-student spending and smaller class sizes compared to the state averages, these resources have not yet translated into consistently strong academic performance. The data indicates a need for targeted interventions and support to address the school's declining performance and the economic challenges faced by its student population.
