East Stroudsburg Elementary School

Summary:

East Stroudsburg Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 605 students in grades K-5 in the East Stroudsburg Area School District in East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania. This school consistently outperforms the district and state averages on standardized tests, with particularly strong performance in 3rd grade and among its African American and multi-racial student subgroups.

East Stroudsburg Elementary School's academic performance is impressive, with proficiency rates of 59.2% in English Language Arts, 48.7% in Math, and 90.6% in Science, compared to the district averages of 47.7%, 29.1%, and 66.4%, respectively. The school's 3rd-grade students also excel, with 75% proficient or better in ELA and 60% in Math, outpacing the district's 57.5% and 50.1%. Additionally, the school's African American and multi-racial student subgroups rank in the top 5% and top 25% of Pennsylvania elementary schools, respectively, a notable achievement.

While East Stroudsburg Elementary School serves a higher percentage of low-socioeconomic status students compared to the district average, its strong performance suggests effective strategies for supporting these students. The school's increased per-student spending over the years and relatively stable student-teacher ratio also indicate a commitment to investing in educational resources. However, the school's white and disabled student subgroups perform below the state average, and some nearby schools, such as Five Points Elementary School in the Bangor Area School District, have lower percentages of free/reduced-price lunch recipients and higher overall academic 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.
