Ps 146 Ann M Short

Summary:

PS 146 Ann M Short is an elementary school located in New York, NY, serving grades PK-5 with 309 students. It is part of the New York City Geographic District #4, which is ranked 671 out of 865 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools over the past decade, with a current ranking of 1681 out of 2445 schools.

PS 146 Ann M Short consistently underperforms compared to the district and the state in standardized test scores, with only 27.27% of 3rd graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 42.73% in the district and 42.6% statewide. The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with female students, English Language Learners, and students with special needs all ranking in the bottom half or bottom third of their respective statewide subgroups. Despite having a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 94.97% to 96.44%, and increased spending per student, the school has not shown any meaningful improvement in its academic performance over the past decade.

The nearby schools, such as Mosaic Preparatory Academy, Ps 83 Luis Munoz Rivera, and Lexington Academy, also struggle academically, with most of them ranking in the bottom half of New York elementary schools. However, Ps 83 Luis Munoz Rivera and the charter school Amber Charter School East Harlem perform significantly better than PS 146 Ann M Short across various academic metrics, suggesting that addressing the complex factors contributing to the school's underperformance will likely require a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach.

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.
