Sodus Intermediate School

Summary:

Sodus Intermediate School is a public middle school serving grades 4-7 in the Sodus Central School District, with 231 students and a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher spending per student compared to the state average and nearby schools, Sodus Intermediate School consistently underperforms on state assessments in English Language Arts and Math across all grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 4th grade ELA proficiency rate was 35.38%, compared to the state average of 47.05%, and its 6th grade Math proficiency rate was 48.72%, compared to the state average of 50.56%. When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Spry Middle School in the Webster Central School District, Sodus Intermediate School's academic performance lags significantly.

The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Sodus Intermediate School, ranging from 71.95% to 74.89% over the past three school years, suggests a socioeconomically disadvantaged student population, which may contribute to the school's academic challenges. Despite the school's higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio, these factors do not seem to translate into better academic outcomes, raising questions about the efficient use of resources and the factors contributing to the school's underperformance.

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.
