Southampton Elementary School

Summary:

Southampton Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 376 students in grades PK-4 in Southampton, New York, which is part of the Southampton Union Free School District. While the school has relatively high spending per student and a low student-teacher ratio, it has consistently underperformed compared to the state average on New York State Assessments in English Language Arts and Math.

In the 2023-2024 school year, only 37.84% of 3rd graders and 50.88% of 4th graders at Southampton Elementary School were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state averages of 42.6% and 47.05%, respectively. In Math, the school's proficiency rates were 33.33% for 3rd grade and 43.64% for 4th grade, compared to the state averages of 53.93% and 58.03%. The school also struggles to effectively serve certain student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 25% of New York elementary schools for Hispanic students and English Language Learners in ELA, and in the bottom 15% for Special Education students in Math.

When compared to nearby elementary schools, such as Southold Elementary School, Mattituck-Cutchogue Elementary School, and Sag Harbor Elementary School, Southampton Elementary School generally underperforms, with lower proficiency rates in ELA and Math, as well as lower statewide rankings. Despite the school's high spending per student and low student-teacher ratio, its academic performance does not reflect this level of investment, suggesting that a closer examination of its instructional practices, curriculum, and support systems for struggling students may be warranted.

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.
