Woodrow Wilson Elementary School's academic performance is consistently below the state averages in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Math on the New York State Assessments. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate was 30.86% compared to the state average of 42.6%, and its 5th grade Math proficiency rate was 45.33% compared to the state average of 48.93%. The school's performance has been relatively stagnant over the past few years, with its statewide ranking among New York elementary schools declining from 1361 in 2014-2015 to 1311 in 2023-2024. However, the school's performance is generally on par with or slightly better than the other schools in the Cheektowaga-Sloan Union Free School District, such as Theodore Roosevelt School.

The school's special education and economically disadvantaged students also perform better than the overall school, ranking in the top 50% of New York elementary schools in those subgroups. This variation in performance across different student subgroups suggests that the school may need to focus on addressing the specific needs of its lower-performing subgroups, such as Asian and Hispanic 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.
