Michael A Maroun Elementary School

Summary:

Michael A Maroun Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-4 in Phoenix, NY, part of the Phoenix Central School District, which is ranked 626 out of 865 districts in New York and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has 667 students and has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of New York elementary schools, with a ranking between 1,210 and 2,150 over the past 10 years, and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Michael A Maroun Elementary School consistently underperforms compared to the state average on New York State Assessments in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Math, with its 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate at 31.68% compared to the state average of 42.6%, and its 4th grade Math proficiency rate at 40.83% compared to the state average of 58.03%. The school's performance has been declining over the years, and it struggles to support its student subgroups, particularly Special Education students and Low Socioeconomic Status students, who rank in the bottom 10% of New York elementary schools. The school's performance is also significantly lower than the nearby Baldwinsville Central School District, which has several elementary schools that outperform Michael A Maroun Elementary School.

Despite the school's spending per student increasing from $12,154 in 2019-2020 to $15,759 in 2022-2023, its performance is still lower than some of the nearby higher-performing schools, such as L Pearl Palmer Elementary School and Mae E Reynolds School in the Baldwinsville Central School District, as well as Elmcrest Elementary and Soule Road Elementary in the Liverpool Central School District. The declining performance and struggles to support student subgroups suggest that Michael A Maroun Elementary School may need to re-evaluate its instructional practices, resource allocation, and support systems to better serve its students and improve educational outcomes.

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.
