Saint Regis Falls Central School

Summary:

Saint Regis Falls Central School is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 in the Saint Regis Falls Central School District, with 228 students located in Saint Regis Falls, NY.

The school faces significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance on state assessments, high rates of chronic absenteeism ranging from 17.1% to 37.8%, and dropout rates as high as 18.1% in recent years, all of which are well above state averages. Additionally, a high percentage of students, ranging from 54.12% to 61.4%, qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending, ranging from $18,261 to $27,042, and a low student-teacher ratio of 6.4 to 7.7, the academic outcomes remain a significant concern.

Interestingly, the nearby Brushton Grade School, part of the Brushton-Moira Central School District, also faces similar challenges, suggesting that the issues faced by Saint Regis Falls Central School may be reflective of broader regional trends. The combination of low academic achievement, high rates of economic disadvantage, and student engagement issues suggests that Saint Regis Falls Central School may benefit from targeted interventions and support services to address the unique needs of its student population.

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.
