Albany Avenue School

Summary:

Albany Avenue School is an elementary school located in Lindenhurst, New York, serving 484 students in grades K-5. It is part of the Lindenhurst Union Free School District, which is ranked 514 out of 865 school districts in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Albany Avenue School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, its academic performance is mixed compared to the district and state averages. The school performs better in math, with a 3rd grade math proficiency rate of 66.67% compared to the district's 55.2% and the state's 53.93%. However, its 3rd grade English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rate of 40% is lower than the district's 43.33% and the state's 42.6%. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with English Language Learners and low-Socioeconomic Status students performing the lowest.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Northeast School and John F Kennedy School, Albany Avenue School appears to be underperforming, especially in ELA. The school's high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, ranging from 35.7% to 47.31%, may be contributing to its overall academic performance. Targeted interventions and support programs, as well as a closer analysis of the school's instructional practices and curriculum, could help address these challenges and improve outcomes for all 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.
