Summary:

Dr Jacqueline Peek-Davis School is an elementary school located in Brooklyn, New York, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 184 students. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #17, which is ranked 636 out of 865 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Dr Jacqueline Peek-Davis School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools, with performance on state assessments generally below the district and state averages. However, the school has shown some strengths, with African American, special education, and low-income students performing relatively well compared to their peers statewide. The school also has a higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio than the district and state averages, which may be contributing factors to the better-than-expected performance of certain student subgroups. When compared to nearby schools, such as PS 40 George W Carver and PS 327 Dr Rose B English, Dr Jacqueline Peek-Davis School appears to be performing at a similar or slightly lower level in terms of overall academic achievement.

The analysis of Dr Jacqueline Peek-Davis School's data reveals a mix of strengths and areas for improvement. The school's ability to support the academic achievement of certain student subgroups is a positive, but the overall academic performance remains a concern. Continued focus on data-driven decision-making, targeted resource allocation, and learning from the practices of higher-performing nearby schools could help the school enhance its educational outcomes and better serve its 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.
