This school consistently outperforms the district and state averages in academic proficiency, with 4th-grade proficiency rates of 63.64% in English Language Arts and 73.03% in Math, compared to the district's 36.83% and 45.81%, and the state's 47.05% and 58.03%, respectively. The school's performance has been relatively stable over the past few years, with a statewide ranking ranging from 366 to 1086 out of over 2,200 New York elementary schools.

Further, the school's higher per-student spending (ranging from $16,507 to $17,023) and lower student-teacher ratio (around 11-12 students per teacher) compared to the nearby Ben Franklin Elementary School and Herbert Hoover Elementary School suggest that it may have access to more resources and a more favorable learning environment, which could be contributing factors to its strong academic performance.

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.
