Alice E Grady Elementary School has shown mixed academic performance, with some strengths in specific student subgroups but overall lagging behind the nearby high-performing schools in the Irvington Union Free School District. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math were generally on par with or slightly below the district and state averages, with some exceptions, such as strong performance in 6th grade ELA and Math. However, the school's performance for English Language Learner (ELL) students has been below average. Despite relatively high per-student spending and a low student-teacher ratio, the school's overall statewide ranking has fluctuated between the 1,000s and 1,300s out of around 2,400 New York elementary schools.

Compared to nearby schools, Alice E Grady Elementary School's performance is generally on par with or slightly below the nearby Carl L Dixson Elementary School, but significantly lower than the high-performing schools in the Irvington Union Free School District, such as Main Street School School (4-5) and Dows Lane (K-3) School. The school's high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with a free and reduced lunch rate of over 50%, may be a contributing factor to its lower academic outcomes compared to more affluent neighboring districts.

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.
