Williamson Elementary School

Summary:

Williamson Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-4 in the Williamson Central School District in Williamson, NY, with 421 students enrolled.

While Williamson Elementary spends $12,255 per student, which is higher than the state average, the school consistently underperforms the state in English Language Arts and Math proficiency across grades 3 and 4. It also struggles to support certain student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 25% of New York elementary schools for female, white, and special education students. Notably, the school's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past decade, from 887 out of 2,352 schools in 2014-2015 to 1,702 out of 2,445 schools in 2023-2024.

In comparison, nearby schools like Marion Elementary ($17,117 per student) and Lincoln Elementary ($17,111 per student) have higher per-student spending and better academic outcomes. Additionally, the Williamson Central School District as a whole is ranked in the bottom third of New York districts, suggesting that the challenges faced by Williamson Elementary may be reflective of broader district-level issues that need to be addressed.

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.
