Summary:
The 14092 zip code area has only one school, Tuscarora Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6 and is part of the Niagara-Wheatfield Central School District. With a total enrollment of 91 students, Tuscarora Elementary does not appear to be a standout school, as its performance on state assessments is significantly below the district and state averages, with proficiency rates ranging from 16.67% to 60% in English Language Arts and 23.08% to 30% in Math across different grade levels.
The school has a very high percentage of Native American students (81.32%), with the remaining students being primarily of two or more races (16.48%). Additionally, 52.75% of students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. Despite the school's high spending of $43,470 per student, which is significantly higher than the state average, and its very low student-teacher ratio of 4.9 to 1, the academic performance of Tuscarora Elementary remains a concern.
Overall, the data suggests that Tuscarora Elementary School is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. Further investigation into the school's specific challenges, teaching practices, and community engagement strategies may be necessary to identify ways to improve student outcomes and better support the predominantly Native American student population in this area.
