Gregory Jocko Jackson-Sports-Arts

Summary:

Gregory Jocko Jackson-Sports-Arts is an elementary school in Brooklyn, New York, serving 240 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of New York City Geographic District #23, which is ranked 694 out of 866 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Gregory Jocko Jackson-Sports-Arts faces significant challenges in improving academic performance. The school has a higher percentage of African American (61.25%) and Hispanic (34.58%) students compared to nearby schools, and its students perform lower than district and state averages on New York State Assessments. For example, in the 2022-2023 school year, only 15.38% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 32.88% in the district and 45.09% statewide. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 25% of New York elementary schools, placing it in the lowest 1-star category on the SchoolDigger rating system. While the school's spending per student is relatively high at $28,843, this does not appear to translate into improved academic outcomes.

Interestingly, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups. African American students perform better than the overall school, ranking in the top 50% of New York elementary schools, while English Language Learner and Homeless students perform much worse, ranking in the bottom 25% and bottom 1%, respectively. Nearby schools, such as Christopher Avenue Community School and Ps 328 Phyllis Wheatley, have shown relatively better academic outcomes, suggesting potential opportunities for Gregory Jocko Jackson-Sports-Arts to learn from their practices and strategies.

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.
