Gregory B Jarvis Middle School

Summary:

Gregory B Jarvis Middle School is a public middle school located in Mohawk, New York, serving grades 5-8 with a total enrollment of 628 students. The school is part of the Central Valley Central School District, which is ranked 573 out of 865 school districts in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Gregory B Jarvis Middle School has consistently underperformed compared to the state average and the district in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency on the New York State Assessments, the school has shown strong performance on Regents exams, with 100% proficiency in Algebra I and Living Environment in recent years. However, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Hispanic and multi-racial students tending to perform better than their white and economically disadvantaged peers. The school's high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 63.69% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, likely contributes to the academic challenges it faces.

When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Clinton Middle School, Gregory B Jarvis Middle School generally underperforms in academic proficiency, particularly in ELA and Math. This suggests the need for targeted interventions and strategies to improve student outcomes at the school. Despite the challenges, the school's increased per-student spending and improved student-teacher ratio in recent years indicate potential areas for improvement, which could help the school better serve its students and 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.
