Oakfield-Alabama Elementary School

Summary:

Oakfield-Alabama Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 351 students in grades PK-5 in the Oakfield-Alabama Central School District located in Oakfield, NY. While the school generally performs below the state average on New York State Assessments, it does outperform the state in 5th grade Science. However, the school's performance for student subgroups, such as Special Education and Low Socioeconomic Status students, is significantly lower than the overall school performance, indicating achievement gaps that need to be addressed.

Despite the relatively high spending per student at Oakfield-Alabama Elementary School, ranging from $11,424 to $14,415 over the past few years, the school's academic performance is still below the state average. This suggests that additional resources alone may not be the sole solution to improving student outcomes. The school's statewide ranking has also declined from 841 out of 2,413 schools in 2018-2019 to 1,598 out of 2,439 schools in 2022-2023, indicating a relative decline in performance compared to other New York elementary schools.

Interestingly, Akron Elementary School and Pembroke Intermediate School, which are nearby schools, generally perform better than Oakfield-Alabama Elementary School. Additionally, the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Oakfield-Alabama Elementary School, ranging from 48.46% to 51.76% over the past few years, suggests that the school may be serving a population with greater socioeconomic challenges, which could contribute to the lower academic performance.

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.
