Bellevue Elementary School

Summary:

Bellevue Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in the Syracuse City School District, with 389 students. Despite its high per-student spending and relatively low student-teacher ratio, the school has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in New York state, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bellevue Elementary's academic performance is well below state and district averages on New York state assessments in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math. For example, in 2023-2024, only 7.41% of 3rd graders, 2.04% of 4th graders, and 19.23% of 5th graders scored proficient or better on the ELA assessments, compared to the state averages of 42.6%, 47.05%, and 43.68% respectively. The school's math proficiency rates are also very low, ranging from 0% to 16.98% across the grade levels. Bellevue Elementary serves a high-needs student population, with 90.49% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023 and a high percentage of minority students.

While the nearby schools in the Syracuse City School District also struggle with low academic performance, Bellevue Elementary generally performs worse than these schools on state assessments. For example, in 2023-2024, Bellevue Elementary's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate of 7.41% was significantly lower than the 17.02% rate at the nearby STEAM At Dr King Elementary School. Despite the high per-student spending and relatively low student-teacher ratio, Bellevue Elementary has not shown significant improvement in its academic performance over the past several years, indicating that a more comprehensive and targeted approach may be necessary to address the root causes of the school's struggles and support student learning.

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.
