Kaegebein School

Summary:

Kaegebein School is an elementary school located in Grand Island, New York, serving grades 2-5 with a total enrollment of 393 students. It is part of the Grand Island Central School District, which is ranked 253 out of 865 school districts in New York and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Kaegebein School consistently outperforms the state and district averages in proficiency rates for English Language Arts (ELA) and Math across grades 3-5. In 2023-2024, Kaegebein's 4th grade ELA proficiency rate was 56.58%, compared to 47.85% for the district and 47.05% for the state, and its 4th grade Math proficiency rate was 75.34%, compared to 70.06% for the district and 58.03% for the state. Additionally, Kaegebein's 5th grade Science proficiency rate in 2023-2024 was 45.24%, higher than the district's 51.72% and the state's 35%. However, the school struggles to support its special education and economically disadvantaged students, who have 1-2 star rankings in recent years, suggesting a need to address the achievement gap for these subgroups.

Compared to nearby schools, Huth Road School within the Grand Island Central School District, as well as schools in the Kenmore-Tonawanda Union Free School District and the Buffalo City School District, Kaegebein School's academic performance is significantly stronger, with higher proficiency rates and better SchoolDigger rankings. This highlights Kaegebein's relative strength as a high-performing elementary school within its district, despite the need to address the disparities in student subgroup 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.
