F P Donnelly School

Summary:

F P Donnelly School is an elementary school in Conklin, NY, serving 295 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Susquehanna Valley Central School District. Unfortunately, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools over the past 10 years, with test scores generally below state and district averages across all grade levels and subjects.

The school's performance varies significantly by student subgroup, with male students outperforming female students and white students and special education students performing worse than their peers. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. When compared to other nearby elementary schools, such as Brookside Elementary School, F P Donnelly School generally performs worse on test scores and other metrics.

The data suggests that F P Donnelly School is a lower-performing elementary school, with a concerning trend of declining performance over the past 10 years. The significant variation in outcomes by student subgroup and the school's overall lagging performance compared to state and district averages are areas of concern that the district and school leadership should closely examine. Identifying and addressing the root causes of these issues could help improve the educational outcomes for all students at F P Donnelly School.

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.
