Bolivar-Richburg Elementary School

Summary:

Bolivar-Richburg Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Richburg, New York, with a student population of 346. The school is part of the Bolivar-Richburg Central School District, which is ranked 504 out of 866 school districts in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Bolivar-Richburg Elementary School consistently outperforms the state average in Math, with proficiency rates ranging from 40-70% in recent years, the school has struggled with English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency, with rates ranging from 22-48% in 2022-2023, significantly below the state average of around 45%. The school's performance also varies significantly by student subgroup, with male and White students tending to perform better than their female and non-White counterparts, and special education students and those from low socioeconomic backgrounds lagging behind their peers in both ELA and Math.

Compared to other nearby elementary schools, such as Allegany-Limestone Elementary School, Washington West Elementary School, and Wellsville Elementary School, Bolivar-Richburg Elementary School generally performs on par or slightly below in terms of test scores and overall school rankings. However, the school's strong Math performance and relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.4 suggest areas of strength that could be leveraged to improve overall academic outcomes.

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.
