Greenburgh Eleven High School

Summary:

Greenburgh Eleven High School is a small public high school in Dobbs Ferry, New York, serving just 53 students in grades 9-12. The school's student population is predominantly African American (41.51%) and Hispanic (39.62%), and 86.79% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant socioeconomic challenges.

Despite its small size and relatively high staffing levels, Greenburgh Eleven High School consistently ranks among the lowest-performing high schools in New York state, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has had abysmal four-year graduation rates, ranging from 0% to 30% over the past several years, and very high dropout rates, ranging from 25% to 50%. Chronic absenteeism is also a major issue, with rates ranging from 38% to 48.4% in recent years. These metrics are in stark contrast to the high-performing neighboring schools, such as Scarsdale Senior High School, Irvington High School, and Edgemont Junior-Senior High School, which consistently rank among the top high schools in the state.

The racial and socioeconomic disparities between Greenburgh Eleven High School and its neighboring high-performing schools suggest potential issues of equity and access to quality education for students of color and those from disadvantaged backgrounds in the region. Despite the school's small size and relatively high staffing levels, Greenburgh Eleven High School has consistently performed poorly over the past decade, with little to no improvement in its state rankings, test scores, graduation rates, or other key metrics, indicating deeply entrenched systemic issues that have not been effectively addressed.

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.
