Trumansburg Elementary School

Summary:

Trumansburg Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-4 in the Trumansburg Central School District, with 389 students located in Trumansburg, NY. The school's performance on state assessments is mixed compared to the state average, with some fluctuations but generally staying within a few percentage points of the state average.

Trumansburg Elementary School generally performs better on state assessments than the nearby Newfield Elementary School, which is part of the Newfield Central School District and has lower rankings and proficiency rates. However, the school lags behind several of the higher-performing elementary schools in the Ithaca City School District, such as South Hill School, Northeast School, and Cayuga Heights Elementary School, which have higher rankings and proficiency rates.

Trumansburg Elementary School's performance on state assessments varies significantly by student subgroup, with female students generally outperforming male students and white students outperforming special education and low socioeconomic status students. The school's ranking for low socioeconomic status students has declined, indicating a widening achievement gap for this population. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and increasing per-student spending, the growing percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients may indicate a need for additional support services and interventions to address these challenges.

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.
