Summary

Salem Hyde Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in the Syracuse City School District, with 463 students enrolled. Despite increased spending and a relatively low student-teacher ratio, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of New York elementary schools over the past several years, with a 0 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.

Salem Hyde's academic performance, as measured by state assessments, is significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 26.47% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA, compared to 54.15% statewide. The school also struggles to serve its diverse student population effectively, ranking in the bottom 20-30% of New York elementary schools for African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, and low-socioeconomic status students. Additionally, the school has an extremely high free and reduced lunch rate, reaching 82.94% in 2023-2024, indicating a high concentration of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

While the other elementary schools in the Syracuse City School District, such as Seymour Dual Language Academy, Hurlbut W Smith K-8 School, and Webster Elementary School, also struggle academically, they generally perform better than Salem Hyde across most metrics. Addressing the significant challenges faced by Salem Hyde will likely require a multifaceted approach, including targeted interventions and a deeper examination of the underlying factors contributing to the district's overall struggles.
