Ps 213 New Lots

Summary:

PS 213 New Lots is an elementary school located in Brooklyn, New York, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 218. The school is part of the New York City Geographic District #19, which is ranked 754 out of 866 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

PS 213 New Lots has consistently low academic performance compared to the district and state averages. In the 2022-2023 school year, only 3.85% of 3rd graders, 12.5% of 4th graders, and 23.33% of 5th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts (ELA) assessments. In math, the proficiency rates were even lower, with 0% of 3rd graders, 4% of 4th graders, and 16.67% of 5th graders scoring proficient or better. The school also has a significantly higher percentage of African American students (69.72%) and a very high percentage of students (92.2%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. As a result, PS 213 New Lots has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of New York elementary schools, with a ranking of 2391 out of 2439 schools in the 2022-2023 school year and a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While the nearby schools in the same district also have low academic performance and high percentages of economically disadvantaged students, some schools, such as PS 149 Danny Kaye and PS 190 Sheffield, have significantly higher academic proficiency rates and better overall rankings compared to PS 213 New Lots. Additionally, the performance of specific student subgroups at PS 213 New Lots, such as African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Special Education students, is also concerning, as the school ranks in the bottom 10% of New York elementary schools for these subgroups. Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $28,263 in the 2022-2023 school year, the school's challenges appear to be multifaceted, involving factors such as student demographics, resource allocation, and instructional practices.

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.
