Michael A Maroun Elementary School

Summary:

Michael A Maroun Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-4 in the Baldwinsville Central School District in Phoenix, NY, with a student population of 667 that is predominantly White (95.5%).

Despite having a relatively high per-student spending of $15,759 and a low student-teacher ratio of 13.9, Michael A Maroun Elementary consistently underperforms the state averages in proficiency rates for English Language Arts (ELA) and Math on the New York State Assessments. In 2022-2023, the school's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate was 18.9% compared to the state average of 44.89%, and its 4th grade ELA proficiency rate was 14.71% compared to the state average of 48.79%. In Math, the school's 3rd grade proficiency rate was 33.33% compared to the state average of 53.68%, and its 4th grade proficiency rate was 40.3% compared to the state average of 53.85%. The school's performance has declined over the years, with proficiency rates dropping from 2020-2021 to 2022-2023.

Michael A Maroun Elementary has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 58.02% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, significantly higher than the nearby Liverpool Central School District schools, which range from 19.79% to 47.11% free/reduced lunch recipients. Additionally, the school's special education students consistently rank in the bottom 10% of New York elementary schools, indicating that the school may be struggling to provide adequate support and resources for this population. Interestingly, the school has a much higher percentage of White students (95.5%) compared to the more diverse nearby schools, and its high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio do not seem to be translating into better academic performance for the 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.
