Crown Point Central School

Summary:

Crown Point Central School is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 in Crown Point, New York, with 322 students and a student-teacher ratio of 16.1. This school is part of the Crown Point Central School District.

Crown Point Central School has some notable strengths, such as generally higher graduation rates than the state average, ranging from 81.2% to 95.6% in recent years. However, the school faces challenges in areas like chronic absenteeism, which has been significantly higher than the state average, between 26% and 37.8%. Academically, the school's proficiency rates on state assessments are generally lower than the state averages, especially in math and science, though it performs better on some Regents exams like Algebra II, English Language Arts, and U.S. History. Over 50% of the school's students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, which is higher than the state average, and the school spends significantly more per student ($25,676 in 2022-2023) compared to the state average.

Interestingly, a nearby alternative public school, Schroon Lake Central School, has similar graduation and dropout rates but lower chronic absenteeism and generally higher test scores compared to Crown Point Central School. This suggests that Crown Point Central School may benefit from learning best practices from its neighbor. Additionally, despite the higher spending per student, Crown Point Central School's academic performance is still lagging in some areas, indicating the school should examine how it is allocating its resources to ensure they are being used effectively to support student learning.

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.
