Malone Middle School faces significant challenges, with consistently underperforming academic results compared to state averages.

Malone Middle School has consistently ranked in the bottom 25% of New York middle schools, with a ranking of 1422 out of 1500 in 2022-2023. The school struggles to support the academic achievement of various student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 20% of New York middle schools for female, male, low-socioeconomic status, and special education students.

Interestingly, the nearby Salmon River Middle School, which serves a more diverse student population with a majority of Native American students, outperforms Malone Middle School on several academic measures, despite being ranked similarly low statewide. This suggests that factors beyond just racial demographics may be contributing to the academic challenges at Malone Middle School. The school's declining performance and increased per-student spending without improved outcomes indicate the need for a comprehensive review and strategic interventions to address the systemic issues impacting student success.

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.
