Summary:
The 11692 zip code area in New York is home to two elementary schools: Ps/Middle School 42 R Vernam and Goldie Maple Academy. Both schools serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, with high percentages of free and reduced lunch recipients. However, the academic performance of these schools is concerning, as they consistently rank in the bottom 10-20% of New York elementary schools and have significantly lower proficiency rates on state assessments compared to the New York City Geographic District #27 and the state of New York.
Despite the higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio at Ps/Middle School 42 R Vernam, the school's academic outcomes are not significantly better than those of Goldie Maple Academy. This suggests that simply allocating more resources may not be enough to address the underlying issues contributing to the low performance of these schools. Both institutions face significant challenges in improving educational outcomes for their students.
Overall, the analysis of the school data for the 11692 zip code area reveals a concerning picture of low-performing schools serving a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population. Addressing the root causes of the academic challenges and implementing effective strategies to improve educational outcomes in this area should be a priority for the local education authorities and the community as a whole.
