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.

P.S. 335 is one of the greatest schools in the USA. It has won many awards, but the most celebrated award is the school's achievement of the National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence Award which was presented by the US Department of Education. The school is a vibrant, rigorous organization that supports students, their families and the community with a lot of love and care. The principal, assistant principal, teachers and staff work smart and hard to give students the best educational experience that the city has to offer. Students go on countless trips throughout the city visiting museums, theaters, parks, and other schools to support their curriculum and instructional programs. Many school trips represent an integral part of the students' learning and curriculum project activities. I must say that P.S. 335 has a great deal of promise and offers amazing opportunities to its entire school community! Close Quote

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.
