Museum School 25

Summary:

Museum School 25 is an elementary public magnet school located in Yonkers, New York, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 268 students. Despite its specialized educational program, the school consistently ranks in the bottom 10% of New York elementary schools and struggles to effectively serve its diverse student population.

The school's academic performance is significantly below the Yonkers City School District and New York state averages across all grade levels and subjects. This is particularly concerning for the school's African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status students, who all rank in the bottom 25% of New York elementary schools. Additionally, the school has an extremely high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 77.99% to 82.87% over the past 3 years, which is much higher than the district and state averages.

Interestingly, several other magnet schools in the Yonkers City School District, such as School 22, Enrico Fermi School for the Performing Arts, and Paideia School 24, perform significantly better on state assessments and have higher statewide rankings, despite serving a similar demographic of students. This suggests that the magnet school model may not be effectively meeting the needs of the students at Museum School 25, and further investigation into the school's curriculum, instructional practices, and support systems 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.
