John G Dinkelmeyer School

Summary:

John G Dinkelmeyer School is an elementary school located in North Bellmore, New York, serving students from kindergarten to 6th grade with a total enrollment of 398 students. The school is part of the North Bellmore Union Free School District, which is ranked 239 out of 865 school districts in New York and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

John G Dinkelmeyer School consistently ranks among the top 25% of elementary schools in New York, with a strong performance in math, particularly among its Hispanic and special education student populations. The school's 4th and 5th-grade math proficiency rates are significantly higher than the district and state averages. However, the school's performance in English Language Arts (ELA) is more mixed, with some grades performing above the district and state, while others are below. Compared to nearby schools in the East Meadow Union Free School District and North Merrick Union Free School District, John G Dinkelmeyer School's performance is variable, with both strengths and weaknesses in different subject areas.

The school's higher-than-average spending per student and relatively low student-teacher ratio suggest that it has the resources and staffing to provide a quality education. However, the school's performance in certain areas, such as ELA, indicates that there may be opportunities to further optimize the use of these resources. Additionally, the school's relatively weaker performance for its Asian and male student populations is an area that the school may want to investigate further to understand the underlying factors and implement targeted interventions.

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.
