Indian River Intermediate School

Summary:

Indian River Intermediate School is a public elementary school serving grades 4-5 in the Indian River Central School District in Philadelphia, New York, with a diverse student population of 544.

Academically, the school has struggled, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math below the state averages. However, the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio suggests it has the resources to provide more individualized attention. Notably, there are significant disparities in academic performance among different racial groups, with the school's White students performing the poorest, while its English Language Learners and multi-racial students perform better. When compared to other schools in the district, Indian River Intermediate generally performs on par or slightly below the average, but outperforms some nearby schools in the Watertown City School District.

The school also faces challenges related to its high percentage of students from low-income families, with 59.38% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests a need for additional support and resources to address the socioeconomic factors that may be impacting student achievement. Overall, Indian River Intermediate School has the potential to improve student outcomes with targeted interventions and more resources, particularly for its underperforming subgroups.

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.
