Summary:
The Wallkill Central School District in New York is home to three elementary schools: Leptondale Elementary School, Ostrander Elementary School, and Plattekill Elementary School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and provide a range of educational opportunities within the district.
Among the three schools, Plattekill Elementary School stands out as the top performer, with the highest proficiency rates on the 2023-2024 New York State Assessments in both English Language Arts and Math across all grade levels. Plattekill also had the highest 5th grade science proficiency rate and has seen its statewide ranking improve over the past few years. In contrast, Leptondale Elementary School appears to be the weakest performer, with lower proficiency rates across most grade levels and subjects compared to the district and state averages.
The data also reveals some key differences in school characteristics. Plattekill Elementary has the highest percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, as well as the highest spending per student. Ostrander Elementary has the lowest student-teacher ratio, while Leptondale Elementary has the lowest spending per student. These factors may contribute to the performance disparities observed among the schools.
