James A Farley Elementary School

Summary:

James A Farley Elementary School is a public middle school serving grades 4-6 in the Haverstraw-Stony Point Central School District in Stony Point, New York, with an enrollment of 538 students.

James A Farley Elementary School consistently outperforms the district and the state of New York in proficiency rates for the NY State Assessments in English Language Arts and Math. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 6th grade proficiency rates were 29.1% in ELA and 61.54% in Math, compared to the district's 30.75% and 43.88% respectively, and the state's 43.64% and 50.56%. Additionally, the school has seen a significant decrease in its free/reduced lunch rate, from 51.67% in 2020-2021 to just 6.69% in 2022-2023, much lower than the district average. The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 11.9 to 13.7 over the past three school years, lower than the district average.

When compared to other nearby schools in the Haverstraw-Stony Point Central School District, James A Farley Elementary School generally outperforms its peers on state assessments, particularly in Math. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 6th grade Math proficiency rate of 61.54% is significantly higher than the 22.22% at Haverstraw Elementary School and the 53.33% at Willow Grove Elementary School. However, the school's declining free/reduced lunch rate raises questions about equity and access for economically disadvantaged students, and the district and school should closely monitor this trend to ensure all students have the resources and support they need to succeed.

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.
