The school's academic performance on state assessments is below the state averages in both English Language Arts and Math, with proficiency rates declining from 2023-2024 to 2024-2025. Attica Elementary School has a relatively high rate of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at 36.26%, indicating significant socioeconomic challenges for the student population. However, the school district spends $23,898 per student, which is higher than the state average, and the student-teacher ratio is 11.1, lower than the state average.
Attica Elementary School's proficiency rates on the 2024-2025 New York State Assessments are below the state averages in both English Language Arts (36.23% for 3rd grade, 45.83% for 4th grade) and Math (51.47% for 3rd grade, 55.56% for 4th grade), compared to the state averages of 54.15% in ELA and 59.7% in Math for 3rd grade, and 54.07% in ELA and 58.64% in Math for 4th grade. The school's proficiency rates have also declined from 2023-2024 to 2024-2025, suggesting that the school may be struggling to maintain or improve student learning outcomes.
Despite the relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio at Attica Elementary School, the declining academic performance and high rate of free and reduced-price lunch recipients indicate that the school is facing significant challenges. The Attica Central School District may need to investigate the underlying factors contributing to these trends and develop targeted strategies to address the academic and socioeconomic needs of the school's student population.
