Summary

Woodrow Wilson School has consistently ranked in the bottom 25% of New York elementary schools over the past decade, with proficiency rates on state assessments that are significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates ranged from 42.5% to 57.58%, compared to the state averages of 54.07% to 56.61%.

The school's student subgroups, such as African American and English Language Learner (ELL) students, also perform significantly worse than their peers statewide.

When comparing Woodrow Wilson School to other elementary schools in the Binghamton area, it becomes clear that the school is an outlier in terms of academic performance. For instance, Thomas Jefferson School, which is less than a mile away, consistently outperforms Woodrow Wilson School by a significant margin on state assessments, with proficiency rates that are 20-30 percentage points higher. Addressing the underlying issues, such as the high concentration of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, may be crucial for improving student outcomes at Woodrow Wilson School.
