Summary:
The Cassadaga Valley Central School District in New York has only one elementary school, Sinclairville Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The school's academic performance has been mixed, with some grades performing above the district and state averages in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math, while others are below. The school faces socioeconomic challenges, with nearly half of its students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
Sinclairville Elementary School's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 1299 out of 2445 New York elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 1785 out of 2439 in 2022-2023. In 2024-2025, the school's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate was 43.75%, compared to the district's 43.08% and the state's 54.15%. However, the school's 4th grade ELA proficiency rate was 50%, which was higher than the district's 48.15% but still lower than the state's 54.07%. In Math, the school's 3rd grade proficiency rate was 57.81%, compared to the district's 56.92% and the state's 59.7%, while the 5th grade Math proficiency rate was 32.79%, the same as the district's but lower than the state's 54.16%.
The school's high free and reduced-price lunch rate of 49.52% for the 2023-2024 school year suggests that it faces socioeconomic challenges that may impact student learning and achievement. However, the school's relatively high per-student spending of $24,432 and low student-teacher ratio of 10.4 for the 2023-2024 school year indicate that the district is investing resources to support its students. Overall, the data suggests that the school and the broader Cassadaga Valley Central School District may need to implement targeted strategies to improve academic outcomes for all students.
