Mary A. Hubbard Elementary School

Summary:

Mary A. Hubbard Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-3 in Ramsey, New Jersey, part of the highly-ranked Ramsey School District. With 371 students and a student-teacher ratio of 10.8, the school has consistently high academic performance, with 3rd-grade proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics exceeding state averages.

Mary A. Hubbard's academic performance is generally on par with or slightly better than other elementary schools in the Ramsey district, such as Wesley D Tisdale Elementary School and John Y Dater Elementary School. However, when compared to some higher-performing schools in neighboring districts, such as Hillside Elementary School in Allendale and George Washington Elementary School in Wyckoff, Mary A. Hubbard's performance is not as strong, particularly in Mathematics.

While the school maintains a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, its statewide ranking has declined from 87th out of 1,317 elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 371st out of 1,338 in 2023-2024. Additionally, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 7.3% in 2020-2021 to 16.6% in 2022-2023, which is an area of concern that the school and district should address. The school's relatively low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch also suggests it may not be serving a socioeconomically diverse population, raising questions about equity and access to high-quality education for all students in the community.

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.
