Goodyear Elementary School

Summary:

Goodyear Elementary School is a public elementary school in Woburn, Massachusetts, serving 322 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school has consistently underperformed compared to the Woburn district and the state of Massachusetts in academic proficiency, with its statewide ranking dropping from 403 out of 942 Massachusetts elementary schools in 2018-2019 to 659 out of 916 in 2023-2024, earning a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Goodyear Elementary School's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Hispanic students and students with disabilities ranking in the bottom quartile of Massachusetts elementary schools. White students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds also perform below the state average. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 12.4 to 13.1 over the past three school years, is lower than the nearby Hurld-Wyman Elementary School (15.8) and the state average.

Neighboring schools, such as Shamrock and Malcolm White, have outperformed Goodyear Elementary School in academic proficiency rates and statewide rankings. Addressing the school's declining performance and persistent disparities in student group performance will require a comprehensive approach, including a thorough examination of the school's curriculum, teaching practices, and targeted support for underperforming student subgroups.

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.
