Hudson Falls Intermediate School

Summary:

Hudson Falls Intermediate School is a public elementary school serving 316 students in grades 3-6 in the Hudson Falls Central School District in Hudson Falls, New York. The school consistently underperforms compared to the state average on New York State Assessments in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math, with only 34.81% of 4th graders and 33.59% of 5th graders proficient or better in ELA, and 44.3% of 4th graders and 40.31% of 5th graders proficient in Math, compared to the state averages of 47.05%, 43.68%, 58.03%, and 48.93%, respectively.

The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with the school ranking in the bottom 25% of New York elementary schools for White students and Special Education students in ELA and Math, but in the top 40% for Multi-racial students and in the top 50% for African American students in ELA. Despite relatively high spending per student at $12,714 and a low student-teacher ratio of 12.5, the school's academic performance has steadily declined over the past 10 years, from ranking 1115 out of 2,352 New York elementary schools in 2014-2015 to ranking 1696 out of 2,445 in 2023-2024.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Kensington Road School in the Glens Falls City School District, Hudson Falls Intermediate School generally underperforms across multiple grade levels and subject areas on the state assessments. This suggests the school may need to implement more targeted interventions and support for its struggling student populations, particularly those from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, which make up 47.47% of the student body.

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.
