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.

There is no doubt that this school is a wonderful school. However, children living around the school are not readily accepted. Those children have to be bused to overcrowded schools elsewhere in District 26. The Auburndale Improvement Association, the local civic organization, has been advocating for years that PS 130Q be returned to the community as a neighborhood school. We have gathered hundreds of petition signatures, many with comments advocating for the return of the school to the community. This school is geographically in District 26, although it is used by District 25 students. Historically, the school was a K-6 and a K-8 school for neighborhood children. The return of the school has the support of Queens Community Board 11 and the Queens Civic Congress. The Auburndale Improvement Association will continue to work with residents and elected officials until the school is returned for the use of neighborhood children. We are willing to meet with and work with school officials to discuss this issue. Close Quote

Great school. Amazing teachers and an awesome student-parent community. Small suburb-like school in the heart of Queens. 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.
