Washington Irving Interm School

Summary:

Washington Irving Interm School is a public elementary school serving grades 3-5 in Tarrytown, New York, part of the Union Free School District of the Tarrytowns. With 581 students, the school has maintained a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years, though it dipped to a 2-star rating in 2020-2021.

The school's performance on state assessments in English Language Arts and Math is generally on par with or slightly below district and state averages. However, there are significant disparities in achievement across different student subgroups. White and multi-racial students perform well, ranking in the top 20-25% of New York elementary schools, while Hispanic students, English Language Learners, students with disabilities, and those from low-income backgrounds rank in the bottom 25-30%. The school's relatively high per-student spending of around $20,000 and lower student-teacher ratio of 10.1 do not seem to be translating into consistently strong academic outcomes for all students.

When compared to nearby schools, Upper Nyack School, Concord Road Elementary School, and Main Street School (4-5) in the Irvington Union Free School District consistently outperform Washington Irving Interm School on state assessments, suggesting that the school may need to examine its strategies and resource allocation to address the achievement gaps and improve overall student 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.
