Summary:

Fillmore Central School is a public alternative school serving grades PK-12 in the Genesee Valley Central School District, with a student population of around 650 students. The school has a predominantly white student body, but serves a significant proportion of economically disadvantaged students, as indicated by the high free and reduced lunch rates.

The school also excels in Regents exams, with high proficiency rates in subjects like Algebra I, Algebra II, English, and U.S. History and Government.

While Fillmore Central School's academic performance and resource allocation are impressive, the school does have a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 23.2% to 24.2% in the past two school years.

Overall, Fillmore Central School appears to be a high-performing school that is effectively supporting the academic and social-emotional needs of its diverse student population.

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.
