Avon Primary School

Summary:

Avon Primary School is an elementary school serving grades PK-4 in the Avon Central School District in Avon, NY, with 326 students. The school has been rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger for the past several years, ranking in the bottom half of New York elementary schools.

Avon Primary School faces several challenges, including declining performance over the past decade, lower test scores compared to state and nearby school averages, and achievement gaps between different student groups. For example, in 2023-2024, only 40% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA compared to 42.6% statewide, and male students ranked 957 out of 2,411 NY elementary schools in ELA, while female students ranked 1,509 out of 2,413. The school also has a relatively high free/reduced lunch rate, ranging from 29.39% to 33.55% over the past few years, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. In comparison, Manor Intermediate School in the Honeoye Falls-Lima Central School District consistently ranks in the top 10% of NY elementary schools and has significantly higher test scores across all grade levels and subject areas.

Despite these challenges, Avon Primary School's relatively high per-student spending and small class sizes suggest that the school has resources that could be leveraged to improve academic outcomes. Examining instructional practices, curriculum, and support services, as well as targeting interventions and support for economically disadvantaged and underperforming student groups, could be key areas for the school to focus on in order to improve and better serve its students.

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.
