Daniel Webster Elementary School

Summary:

Daniel Webster Elementary School is a public K-5 school in the New Rochelle City School District in New York, serving a diverse student population of 491 students.

Daniel Webster Elementary School consistently outperforms the district and state in academic assessments, with significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math compared to the district and state averages. The school has maintained a 4 or 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks among the top elementary schools in New York, particularly for its support of African American, Hispanic, and White student subgroups. Interestingly, while Daniel Webster outperforms the district, nearby Hutchinson School in the Pelham Union Free School District consistently outperforms Daniel Webster across all grade levels and subject areas.

The data suggests that socioeconomic status may play a significant role in academic achievement, as schools with higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, such as Columbus Elementary and Jefferson Elementary, tend to have lower proficiency rates compared to Daniel Webster and the higher-performing schools in the Pelham district. Despite these differences, Daniel Webster Elementary School has maintained a high level of academic achievement, consistently ranking among the top elementary schools in New York state.

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.
