Ps 132 Juan Pablo Duarte

Summary:

PS 132 Juan Pablo Duarte is a small elementary school in New York City's District 6, serving 151 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. Unfortunately, the school has consistently underperformed compared to other New York elementary schools, ranking in the bottom quartile statewide with low ratings from SchoolDigger.

Academically, PS 132 Juan Pablo Duarte struggles, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science well below the district and state averages. This is particularly concerning for Hispanic students and English Language Learners, who make up a significant portion of the school's population. The school's high percentage of students from low-income families, coupled with its limited resources, may be contributing factors to its academic challenges.

While nearby schools like Dos Puentes Elementary School, PS 48 PO Michael J Buczek, and PS 115 Alexander Humboldt also serve high-needs populations, they generally outperform PS 132 Juan Pablo Duarte. Additionally, Success Academy Charter School - Washington Heights and Zeta Charter School - Inwood, located in the same geographic area, demonstrate significantly higher academic performance. Addressing the challenges faced by PS 132 Juan Pablo Duarte will require a comprehensive approach to improve the school's resources, instructional practices, and support for its most vulnerable students.

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.
