Fredonia Elementary School

Summary:

Fredonia Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades 1-4 in the Fredonia Central School District in Fredonia, NY, with 398 students. While the school provides education to a sizable student population, its performance metrics suggest some areas of concern.

Fredonia Elementary School's test scores are generally below the state average, particularly in Math, with only 38.39% of 3rd graders and 65.56% of 4th graders proficient or better, compared to state averages of 53.93% and 58.03% respectively. The school also struggles with performance gaps across different student groups, with significantly lower rankings for male students, Hispanic students, special education students, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. In comparison, the nearby Wheelock Primary School, also part of the Fredonia Central School District, has higher test scores and a lower percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients.

Additionally, Fredonia Elementary School's statewide ranking has declined from 888 out of 2,345 in 2013-2014 to 1,402 out of 2,445 in 2023-2024, suggesting the school may be struggling to keep up with the performance of other elementary schools in New York. The school's spending per student, while increasing over the years, is still lower than the nearby Wheelock Primary School, which may indicate a need for the district to allocate more resources to Fredonia Elementary School to address the diverse needs of its student population and improve overall academic outcomes.

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.
