Weedsport Elementary School

Summary:

Weedsport Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in the Weedsport Central School District, with 329 students. While the school district is ranked 228 out of 865 districts in New York and rated 4 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, Weedsport Elementary has shown mixed performance on state assessments compared to state and district averages.

The school excels in 5th grade ELA and Math, with proficiency rates higher than the state. However, it struggles in 3rd and 4th grade ELA and Math, indicating challenges in the lower grades. Weedsport Elementary also ranks in the top 20% of New York elementary schools for special education students, but in the bottom 50% for white students and low socioeconomic status students. Despite spending $13,271 per student, which is higher than the state average, the school's academic outcomes have not significantly improved compared to nearby schools like State Street Intermediate in the Skaneateles district.

Furthermore, Weedsport Elementary's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past decade, and the school has seen an increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 36.14% in 2020-2021 to 40.12% in 2022-2023. These trends suggest the school faces challenges in maintaining its academic performance and addressing the needs of its growing population of economically disadvantaged students. To improve outcomes for all students, Weedsport Elementary should focus on identifying and addressing the root causes of its declining performance, particularly in the lower grades and for underperforming student subgroups.

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.
