Summary:
The Byron-Bergen Central School District in New York has one elementary school, Byron-Bergen Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The school's academic performance has been mixed, with some grades and subjects performing on par with or exceeding the state averages, while others have shown declines in proficiency rates over the past two school years.
In the 2024-2025 school year, Byron-Bergen Elementary School's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math were generally on par with or slightly below the state averages, with 3rd grade ELA and 5th grade Math being the exceptions where the school outperformed the state. However, the school's 5th grade Science proficiency rate of 53.97% was significantly higher than the state average of 45.02%. The school's student-teacher ratio of 10.8 in the 2023-2024 school year was lower than the state average, suggesting a relatively favorable learning environment.
Despite the school's higher-than-average per-student spending of $21,270 for the 2023-2024 school year, the school district's overall ranking is 450 out of 874 in New York, and it is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger. The relatively high proportion of economically disadvantaged students (50% free or reduced-price lunch eligibility) at Byron-Bergen Elementary School may be a contributing factor to the school's academic performance, and the district may need to explore ways to optimize the use of its resources to drive better academic outcomes for all students.
