Midlakes Elementary School

Summary:

Midlakes Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 787 students in grades PK-6 in the Phelps-Clifton Springs Central School District in Clifton Springs, New York. The school has a predominantly White student population (90.6%) and consistently underperforms the state averages on New York state assessments for English Language Arts and Math.

Midlakes Elementary has a relatively high percentage of students from low-income families, with 50.06% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This is significantly higher than the state average and suggests the school serves a more economically disadvantaged population. The school spends $13,029 per student, which is higher than the state average but lower than some of the nearby higher-performing schools like Canandaigua Primary-Elementary ($14,066 per student). Interestingly, Midlakes Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.7, which is better than the nearby schools and may indicate smaller class sizes and more individualized attention for students.

When compared to nearby elementary schools, Midlakes Elementary generally underperforms on academic measures. For example, Canandaigua Primary-Elementary and Gorham Elementary both have significantly higher proficiency rates in ELA and Math than Midlakes. The high percentage of low-income students at Midlakes Elementary, coupled with its relatively low academic performance, suggests that the school may be facing challenges in providing equitable educational opportunities for its 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.
