Altmar-Parish-Williamstown Elementary School

Summary:

Altmar-Parish-Williamstown Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 602 students in grades PK-6 in the rural community of Parish, New York. Despite the school's relatively small class sizes and high per-student spending, it consistently underperforms compared to state averages and nearby schools on academic measures.

Altmar-Parish-Williamstown Elementary School struggles academically, with proficiency rates on New York State Assessments well below the state average in both English Language Arts and Math across all grade levels. The school ranks in the bottom quartile of New York elementary schools and has maintained a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. This academic underperformance extends to various student subgroups, including female, male, white, special education, and low-income students. With over 57% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the school serves a high-need population.

When compared to nearby elementary schools, such as Brewerton Elementary School in the Central Square Central School District, Altmar-Parish-Williamstown Elementary School falls short across multiple academic measures. Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending and small class sizes, these investments do not appear to be translating into improved student outcomes. Addressing the challenges at Altmar-Parish-Williamstown Elementary School will likely require a comprehensive approach to improve instructional practices, provide targeted interventions for struggling students, and ensure equity and access for all learners.

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.
