While the school's Math proficiency rates are closer to the state average, ranging from 40.45% to 66.67% in 2023-2024, its English Language Arts (ELA) and Science proficiency rates consistently underperform the state.

Additionally, the school's 5th grade Science proficiency rate of 25.27% is significantly lower than the state average of 35%. The school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 48.21% to 53.74% over the past three years, suggests a need to address the needs of economically disadvantaged students.

When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Camden Middle School, Jamesville-Dewitt Middle School, and Lyndon H Strough Middle School, Roberts Street Middle School generally underperforms in both ELA and Math proficiency rates.

The school's declining 3rd grade proficiency rates and inconsistent performance across grade levels also suggest a need for a comprehensive review of the school's curriculum, instructional practices, and support systems.

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.
