A J Schmidt Elementary School

Summary:

A J Schmidt Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Angola, NY, serving grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 246 students. The school is part of the Evans-Brant Central School District, which is ranked 641 out of 866 school districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

A J Schmidt Elementary School faces several challenges, including lower academic performance compared to the state and nearby schools. The school's 3rd-grade ELA proficiency rate was 22.22% in the 2022-2023 school year, significantly lower than the state average of 44.89% and the district average of 27.03%. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with female students, White students, and special education students performing particularly poorly. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from 943 out of 2,395 New York elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 1,746 out of 2,439 in 2022-2023.

Despite the school's high spending per student ($16,270 in 2022-2023) and low student-teacher ratio (8.3 in 2022-2023), these resources do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes. When compared to nearby schools, such as John T Waugh Elementary School, which has a more diverse student population, A J Schmidt Elementary School generally performs worse on academic measures. Addressing these challenges and learning from the successes of higher-performing schools in the area could be crucial for improving the school's overall performance and providing a better educational experience for its students.

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.
