J D George Elementary School

Summary:

J D George Elementary School is a public elementary school in Verona, NY, serving 412 students in grades PK-6 as part of the Sherrill City School District. While the school has access to significant resources, with a relatively high per-student spending of $15,619, it faces several challenges that impact student outcomes.

J D George Elementary School has a significantly higher percentage of white students (92.72%) compared to nearby schools like Louis V Denti Elementary (69.92% white) and Gansevoort Elementary (65.91% white). Academically, the school's proficiency rates on state assessments are generally lower than the district and state averages, and it struggles to support certain student subgroups, with rankings in the bottom half or quarter of New York elementary schools for female, male, white, special education, and low-income students.

The school's performance has declined over the past several years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 668 out of 2,352 New York elementary schools in 2014-2015 to 1,271 out of 2,439 in 2022-2023. While the Sherrill City School District has a higher overall ranking than the Rome City School District, J D George Elementary lags behind some higher-performing schools in the Oneida City School District, such as Seneca Street School and Durhamville School. The school's high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (43.2%) may be a contributing factor to its academic challenges.

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.
