New Visions Elementary School

Summary:

New Visions Elementary School is a public elementary school in Freeport, New York, serving students from kindergarten to 4th grade as part of the Freeport Union Free School District. The school has a predominantly Hispanic student population, making up nearly 70% of the student body, along with a significant African American population of 23%.

While New Visions Elementary School has shown mixed performance on state assessments compared to district and state averages, it has some notable strengths. The school's African American and Hispanic student subgroups have performed well, ranking in the top 20% and top 40% of New York elementary schools, respectively. However, the school's English Language Learner (ELL) and Special Education student subgroups have struggled, ranking in the middle to lower half of New York elementary schools. The school has also seen a significant increase in per-student spending, from $15,367 in 2019-2020 to $23,612 in 2022-2023, and maintains a relatively low student-to-teacher ratio.

Compared to nearby schools, New Visions Elementary School appears to be performing at a relatively average level within its district. The nearby Archer Street School and Bayview Avenue School have lower performance on state assessments, while the Leo F Giblyn School has outperformed New Visions Elementary School. Additionally, some nearby schools, such as Birch School and Norman J Levy Lakeside School, have a much higher percentage of White students compared to the predominantly Hispanic and African American population at New Visions Elementary School.

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.
