Ps 105 Senator Abraham Bernstein

Summary:

PS 105 Senator Abraham Bernstein is an elementary school located in the Bronx, New York, serving 692 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #11, which is ranked 653 out of 866 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

PS 105 faces significant challenges in academic achievement, with consistently low rankings and performance compared to the district and state. The school has a diverse student population, with a majority of Hispanic students (63.58%), followed by Asian (13.29%), White (11.99%), and African American (8.82%) students. Over the past 10 years, PS 105 has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the years. The school's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better in New York State Assessments, is consistently below the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics.

However, the school's relative strengths in supporting certain student subgroups, such as African American and English Language Learner students, suggest that there may be opportunities for improvement. When compared to nearby schools in the same district, such as PS 96 Richard Rodgers and Steam Bridge School (The), PS 105 generally underperforms. Additionally, two charter schools in the area, Icahn Charter School 2 and Bronx Charter School for Excellence 2, significantly outperform PS 105 and the district in academic achievement, indicating that the charter school model may be more effective in this 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.
