Somers Intermediate School

Summary:

Somers Intermediate School is a public elementary school serving grades 3-5 in the Somers Central School District in Somers, New York. With 524 students, the school consistently outperforms the state average on New York State Assessments in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Somers Intermediate School's test scores are particularly impressive, with proficiency rates exceeding the state average in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade ELA and Math, as well as 5th grade Science. The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and high spending per student, which may contribute to its strong academic performance. However, the school's Low Socioeconomic Status students have significantly lower proficiency rates compared to other subgroups, suggesting a need to address the needs of this population.

When compared to nearby schools, Primrose School and other schools in the Somers Central School District, as well as schools in the Yorktown Central School District and Mahopac Central School District, Somers Intermediate School generally outperforms. However, some schools in the Katonah-Lewisboro Union Free School District, such as Increase Miller Elementary School, have even higher test scores and rankings.

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.
