Claremont School's academic performance, as measured by state assessments, is generally lower than the state and district averages.

Similarly, the percentage of 4th-grade students proficient or better in Math was 45.1%, compared to the state average of 58.03%. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with relatively better outcomes for White and Multi-racial students, but struggling with other subgroups, such as African American students and English Language Learners.

Claremont School has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, with 53.88% of students qualifying in the 2022-2023 school year. This is significantly higher than the nearby Park School (45.86%) and Brookside School (49.79%). Despite the relatively high spending per student at Claremont School ($18,627 in the 2021-2022 school year), the school's academic performance remains below average, suggesting a need to examine the effectiveness of the school's resource allocation and strategies to support student learning.

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.
