Dayton Avenue School has shown mixed performance on state assessments, with 4th-grade students performing better than the district and state in ELA and Math, while 3rd-grade and 5th-grade students struggled, scoring below the district and state averages. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with White students and special education students performing relatively better, while Hispanic students and English Language Learners perform significantly worse compared to their peers statewide. Dayton Avenue School's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 843 out of 2,201 elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 1,254 out of 2,445 in 2023-2024, with a 2-star or 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the increased spending per student at Dayton Avenue School, from $11,394 in 2019-2020 to $14,282 in 2022-2023, which is higher than the state average, the school's performance has not shown a corresponding improvement.

These findings suggest that Dayton Avenue School faces challenges in ensuring that increased resources and smaller class sizes are effectively translated into improved student outcomes, particularly for underperforming subgroups.

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.
