Geyser Road Elementary School

Summary:

Geyser Road Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 348 students in grades K-5 in the Saratoga Springs City School District in Saratoga Springs, New York. While the district as a whole is highly ranked, Geyser Road Elementary School's academic performance, as measured by state assessments, is generally lower than the district and state averages across grade levels and subject areas.

The school has a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (34.2%) compared to nearby Dorothy Nolan Elementary School (21.8%) and Lake Avenue Elementary School (20.87%), and its student population is predominantly White. The school's performance for specific student subgroups, such as female students, male students, and students with special needs, is generally lower than the overall school performance.

Despite having higher per-student spending ($16,057) and a lower student-teacher ratio (10.4) compared to nearby schools, Geyser Road Elementary School is not achieving the same level of academic performance as its counterparts within the Saratoga Springs City School District. This suggests that the school may need to examine its resource allocation and develop targeted strategies to address the specific challenges it faces in improving student outcomes.

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.
