Best Public Schools in Zip Code 14212

Summary:

The 14212 zip code area in Buffalo, New York is home to two elementary schools: Harriet Ross Tubman Academy and Woodrow Wilson Elementary School. While both schools serve students in the same geographic area, the data reveals significant differences in their academic performance and student demographics.

Woodrow Wilson Elementary School emerges as the stronger-performing school, with a higher statewide ranking, better proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math, and a more economically diverse student population. In contrast, Harriet Ross Tubman Academy serves a predominantly low-income student body, with 96.3% of its students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, and lags behind in academic achievement compared to its counterpart.

The disparities between the two schools suggest that factors beyond just funding and resources, such as socioeconomic status and racial diversity, may be contributing to the differences in student outcomes. While both schools perform below the state average, understanding the specific challenges faced by Harriet Ross Tubman Academy and implementing targeted interventions could help narrow the performance gap between the schools in the Buffalo City School District and the Cheektowaga-Sloan Union Free School District.
