Summary:
Edinburg Common School is a small public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in Northville, NY, with just 52 students and a very low student-teacher ratio of 6.5. Despite its small size, the school stands out for its strong academic performance, high per-student spending, and relatively homogeneous student population.
Edinburg Common School has significantly higher proficiency rates on state assessments compared to the state average, with 80% proficiency in 3rd grade ELA, 85.71% in 5th grade ELA, and 100% in 5th grade Math in 2022-2023. However, the school's statewide ranking has fluctuated significantly over the years, from as low as 2,122 out of 2,413 elementary schools in 2018-2019 to as high as 488 out of 2,439 in 2022-2023, suggesting inconsistent performance. The school also spends significantly more per student, at $24,308, compared to the $13,105 - $17,548 spent per student at the nearby Park Terrace School, Stuart M Townsend Elementary School, and other nearby schools.
Edinburg Common School has a relatively homogeneous student population, with over 90% of students identifying as white in recent years, in contrast to the more diverse nearby schools, which have white student populations ranging from 76.41% to 98.76%. While the school outperforms the state averages on test scores, it is not necessarily the top performer among the nearby schools, with Greenfield Elementary School in the Saratoga Springs City School District having higher proficiency rates in both ELA and Math across multiple grade levels. This suggests that factors beyond just funding and demographics may be at play in determining student outcomes at Edinburg Common School.
