East Hill School has seen a fluctuating ranking over the years, ranging from 862 out of 2,445 New York elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 1,640 out of 2,395 in 2017-2018. The school's rating has also varied, with 3 stars out of 5 in the most recent years (2023-2024 and 2022-2023) and 2 stars in the previous years. Female students and white students have consistently outperformed their peers, while the school's special education students have struggled. The school's performance on state assessments has been mixed, with some grades and subjects performing above the state and district averages, while others are below.

Compared to nearby schools, such as George D Ryder Elementary School and Wheelerville School, East Hill School generally performs better on state assessments and has a higher school ranking. However, the Fonda-Fultonville K-4 School, which is about 10 miles away, has significantly outperformed East Hill School. The school's relatively high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients suggests that it serves a population with a higher proportion of students from low-income families, which may contribute to the school's overall performance.

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.
