Craig Hill Elementary School

Summary:

Craig Hill Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades 3-5 in the Greece Central School District in Rochester, NY, with 266 students and a student-teacher ratio of 9.9. The school has a relatively diverse student population, with White students making up the largest group (around 50%), followed by Hispanic (around 18%), African American (around 15%), and Asian (around 8%) students.

While the school's spending per student has been increasing, reaching $20,540 in the 2022-2023 school year, its academic performance has been declining. Craig Hill Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to the district and the state of New York in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency. In the 2022-2023 school year, only 40% of 3rd graders, 30.53% of 4th graders, and 37.65% of 5th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the district averages of 34.39%, 32.79%, and 31.82%, respectively. In Math, the school's proficiency rates were slightly higher, but still below the district averages. The school's ranking among New York elementary schools has dropped from 729 in 2013-2014 to 1480 in 2022-2023, and its overall SchoolDigger rating has decreased from 3 stars to 2 stars during this period.

When compared to other elementary schools in the Greece Central School District, such as Longridge School and Buckman Heights Elementary School, Craig Hill Elementary School generally underperforms. The school's high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds (57.89% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch) may be a contributing factor to its academic challenges, and the school may need to re-evaluate its strategies and allocate resources more effectively to support the diverse needs of its 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.
