PS 13 Roberto Clemente has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools, with a ranking between 960 and 2391 out of around 2,400 schools over the past 10 years. The school's performance on state assessments is mixed, with some grades performing better than others.

The school's African American and Hispanic students generally perform better than the overall school, ranking in the top half of New York elementary schools for these subgroups. However, the school's English Language Learner and Special Education students perform significantly worse, ranking in the bottom quarter of New York elementary schools for these subgroups.

The nearby schools in the same district, such as PS 190 Sheffield, Brooklyn Gardens Elementary School, PS 213 New Lots, and PS 328 Phyllis Wheatley, generally perform at a similar or slightly higher level than PS 13 Roberto Clemente on state assessments and overall school rankings. However, these nearby schools also serve high-poverty student populations, with free/reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 92.2% to 99.59%. The high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at PS 13 Roberto Clemente and the nearby schools may be a significant factor contributing to their lower academic performance compared to the state average.

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.

Open Quote Terrible school very unorganized, the staff I is negligent towards the needs of the stupids. Very unprofessional, and at times out right disrespectful. When admin is challenged by parents, they attack with retaliatory actions against the complaining parents. I have seen staff take very inappropriate disciplinary measures against students , unfairly. However when justified means are called for appropriate disciplinary actions non are taken. 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.
