Burton Street Elementary School

Summary:

Burton Street Elementary School is a public elementary school in Cazenovia, New York, serving 437 students in grades K-4. The school is part of the Cazenovia Central School District, which is ranked 172 out of 866 districts in New York and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

One key differentiator of Burton Street Elementary is its racial makeup, with a significantly higher percentage of white students (94.05%) compared to the state average and nearby schools like Mott Road Elementary and Jamesville Elementary, which have more diverse student populations. However, the school's academic performance has seen a decline in recent years, dropping from a high statewide ranking of 204 out of 2,325 New York elementary schools in 2012-2013 to 1,227 out of 2,439 in 2022-2023. Its proficiency rates in ELA and Math range from 35-63%, below the state averages of 45-54%.

When compared to nearby schools, Burton Street Elementary stands out as having lower academic performance and a less diverse student population. Schools like Jamesville Elementary, Mott Road Elementary, and Enders Road Elementary, which are part of higher-ranked Fayetteville-Manlius Central School District, consistently outperform Burton Street on state assessments. Additionally, the high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds at Burton Street Elementary may be a significant factor in its academic performance, as research has shown that students from low-income families often face additional challenges that can impact their educational outcomes.

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.
