Somers Intermediate School

Summary:

Somers Intermediate School is a public elementary school serving grades 3-5 in the Somers Central School District in Somers, New York, with a student population of 524. The school consistently outperforms the state average in New York State Assessments for English Language Arts and Math, and has maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for several years, ranking in the top 25% of New York elementary schools.

Somers Intermediate School's academic performance is particularly strong, with its 3rd, 4th, and 5th-grade students scoring significantly higher than the state average in both ELA and Math assessments. The school's performance is also noteworthy for certain student subgroups, such as male students, Hispanic students, and special education students, who all rank highly compared to their peers across the state. This consistent high performance suggests the school is providing a quality education for its diverse student population.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Pequenakonck Elementary School and Austin Road Elementary School, Somers Intermediate School's academic results are generally stronger, with higher proficiency rates in both ELA and Math. Additionally, the school's relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, along with its higher spending per student, may contribute to its success in delivering a high-quality education to its 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.
