Geneseo Elementary School

Summary:

Geneseo Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 373 students in grades K-5 in the Geneseo Central School District in Geneseo, New York. The school's student population is predominantly White (79.09%), with smaller percentages of Hispanic (13.14%), two or more races (5.36%), African American (1.34%), Asian (0.8%), and Native American (0.27%) students.

Geneseo Elementary School's academic performance is a concern, with test scores that are generally lower than the state averages. In 2022-2023, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) ranged from 32% to 36.84% across grades 3-5, compared to the state averages of 44.89% to 48.79%. Similarly, the school's math proficiency rates ranged from 31.58% to 38.89%, while the state averages were 49.69% to 53.85%. The school's statewide ranking has also fluctuated, ranging from 795 out of 2,352 New York elementary schools in 2014-2015 to 1,861 out of 2,439 in 2022-2023, with ratings varying from 1 to 3 stars out of 5. This suggests that the school is underperforming academically compared to both the state and nearby schools, such as Caledonia-Mumford Elementary School, which has significantly higher proficiency rates.

Geneseo Elementary School's struggles are particularly evident in its performance for certain student subgroups. The school's ranking for English Language Learner (ELL) students is relatively high, but its ranking for Special Education and Low Socioeconomic Status (SES) students is much lower, with ratings in the bottom 10-15% of New York elementary schools. This suggests that the school may not be effectively supporting these vulnerable student populations. Additionally, the school's increased spending per student, from $13,895 in 2019-2020 to $17,757 in 2022-2023, has not yet translated into improved academic outcomes, indicating that the school may need to re-evaluate its strategies and resource allocation to better serve all of its students.

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.
