Joseph B Radez Elementary School

Summary:

Joseph B Radez Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades 2-6 in Richmondville, New York, with 342 students. The school is part of the Cobleskill-Richmondville Central School District, which is ranked 575 out of 865 school districts in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of the same district, George D Ryder Elementary School consistently outperforms Joseph B Radez Elementary School on state assessments and has a higher statewide ranking. Joseph B Radez Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to the state average on New York State Assessments in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math, with particularly concerning performance for certain student subgroups, such as White students, Special Education students, and Low Socioeconomic Status students. The school's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past decade, from 1074 out of 2345 New York elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 1752 out of 2445 in 2023-2024, with a consistent 1- or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school's high poverty rate, with 42.18% to 48.83% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch over the past few years, may be a contributing factor to its academic challenges. The school's spending per student, around $14,000, is slightly lower than the nearby George D Ryder Elementary School ($15,878 per student), but the student-teacher ratio is similar at around 10:1. Addressing the school's performance issues will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach that focuses on equity, resource allocation, and targeted interventions to support the diverse needs of the school's student population.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
