Summary:

PS 22 Graniteville is an elementary school in Staten Island, New York, serving 786 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #31, which is ranked 410 out of 865 districts in the state.

PS 22 Graniteville has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 34.58% of 3rd graders, 49.07% of 4th graders, and 22.88% of 5th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the district's 54.56%, 61.16%, and 51.02%, respectively. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, ranking in the top 30% for African American students but the bottom 30% for English Language Learners and Homeless students.

When comparing PS 22 Graniteville to nearby schools in the same district, such as PS 21 Margaret Emery-Elm Park and Staten Island School of Civic Leadership, the school significantly underperforms in both ELA and Math proficiency, despite serving similar student populations. Additionally, PS 22 Graniteville's academic performance is inconsistent across grade levels, and its statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past several years, suggesting the need for a comprehensive review of the school's instructional practices, curriculum, and resource allocation.

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.
