Ps 108 Assemblyman Angelo Del Toro Educational Complex

Summary:

Ps 108 Assemblyman Angelo Del Toro Educational Complex is an elementary school serving grades PK-8 in New York City's District 4, with 339 students in the East Harlem neighborhood. Despite increased per-student spending and a low student-teacher ratio, the school has consistently received a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing below average compared to other New York elementary schools.

Academically, Ps 108 struggles significantly compared to the district and state averages. In the 2023-2024 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in ELA and Math assessments across grades 3-8 was much lower than the district and state. For example, in 4th grade ELA, Ps 108 had 30% proficiency compared to 44.27% for the district and 47.05% for the state. The school also performs particularly poorly for certain student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 25% of New York elementary schools for English Language Learners and Low Socioeconomic Status students. Additionally, Ps 108 has extremely high rates of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch, reaching over 93% in recent years.

In contrast, nearby high-performing schools like Tag Young Scholars and Ps 171 Patrick Henry, which are also in District 4, demonstrate significantly higher academic proficiency rates across all subjects and grade levels. The combination of Ps 108's high poverty rates, large populations of English Language Learners and students with special needs, and lack of consistent improvement over time suggest the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique challenges facing the school community.

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.
