Beatrice Gilmore School

Summary:

Beatrice Gilmore School is an elementary school serving grades 3-5 in Woodland Park, New Jersey, with 360 students. The school is part of the Woodland Park School District, which is ranked 419 out of 613 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Beatrice Gilmore School's performance on NJSLA tests is generally below the state average across all grades and subjects, with proficiency rates ranging from 30.7% to 46.8% in English Language Arts and 30.7% to 46.7% in Mathematics, compared to the state averages of 43.6% to 52.3% in ELA and 40.1% to 47.6% in Math. The school's performance is also below the Woodland Park School District average, indicating that it is one of the lower-performing schools within the district. However, the school's Hispanic students and English Language Learners have higher rankings (3-4 stars) compared to its White students and Special Education students (1-2 stars), and its Low Socioeconomic Status students perform relatively well, ranking in the top 25-30% of New Jersey elementary schools in this category.

Another area of concern for Beatrice Gilmore School is its consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 15.6% to 19.3% over the past few years, which is above the state average. Compared to nearby schools, such as the higher-performing Charles Olbon School, also in the Woodland Park School District, Beatrice Gilmore School falls somewhere in the middle in terms of academic performance, with room for improvement in both test scores and attendance.

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.
